Boeing posts a video of the 787-10 on ground and flight tests
Los Angeles - Boeing posted a video of the 787-10's recent flight and ground tests, the largest model in the Dreamliner family.

Beautiful airplane!
both their test planes came through the old Mather AFB (Sacramento) last week... Boeing uses Mather for test flights but don't know why. They come through after 2/3 or so of their test program...come and go for a few days then move on to somewhere else...fun to watch and photograph all 737 MAX and 788 models over last few years
Maybe because there is generally a decent crosswind at Mather and a 10,000 ft runway?
maybe so... seems like they go through the same routine when here
