boeing factory

no cameras were allowed in the factory but we saw 747, 767 and the new unreleased 787 being assembled. the scale of the place was amazing it is the biggest building by volume in the world with the one roof covering 98 acres. they take only 3 days to assemble the new 787. this photo taken from the carpark shows the jumbos they use to pick up the carbon fibre fuesulge from italy and bring to seattle for assembly
