This morning, ZA001 conducted its first slow lap around Paine Field. Taxi tests began a little past 10 AM in Everett.  The fleet of 787’s remains grounded until a remedial fix is applied to the side of body before the aircraft can be cleared for its maiden flight, however Boeing can still proceed with these taxi tests on N787BA. A very special thanks to the person who sent these to me.
