Boeing has moved its second 787 Dreamliner to the flight line in Everett as the company closes in on first flight.

“Momentum continues to build with each milestone achieved,” said Scott Fancher, vice president and general manager of the 787 Dreamliner program, in a statement.

The second 787 sports the livery of Dreamliner launch customer All Nippon Airways. Boeing will begin fuel tests immediately on the second Dreamliner.

Boeing still plans to fly the first Dreamliner by the end of the month and make its first 787 delivery to ANA early next year.
