Boeing 777-200 (N863DA) - KPAE - Apprx April 1999 - This was kinda pre Internet days for me and I was up visiting family in Everett,WA and I cruised the Boeing Complex daily the week I was up there. I have posted this before on other sites, but this was a total scoop photos I had here, and didn't know it. I actually, being a dork sometimes, thought this was Aeroflot 777 with a fake reg. But Nooooooo. I snapped away then continued my Complex cruise. The next day we were down by the old Goodrich Aerospace building and this jet was being towed into the paint hangar at the south end. I got photos there and some video. i thought I had a great Aeroflot scoop. But Nooo again. back when I had to process the film at Konica Labs in Santa Clara, I'd amass 20 rolls of 36 exp and I'd take them in all at once for developing, forgetting what I had on each roll. So, I finally got around to looking up the reg, don't even remember how I did that back then, the newest Airliners magazine arrives, and this jet is in the New photos section, I got torched! It was Delta new colors!
