| It is possible to see Asakusa Sky Tree from
Haneda Airport but this morning is just a
bit hazy. Today the 3rd of July has first
B-787 landed at Haneda Airport (HND) at around
06:15AM, Japan Standard Time. Live camera
captured the beautiful landing with about
12,000 viewers on the early morning stream.
Flight tests go Itami (ITM), Kansai (KIX),
Okayama (OKJ), Hiroshima (HIJ) and Nagoya
(NGO). It's been 4 years since the roll-out,
finally on commercial flights on Itami, Okayama,
Hiroshima, Yamaguchi-Ube and Matsuyama. |

ANA originally planned to introduce the dream
liner for Beijing Olympic held in 2008, but
Boeing pushed their schedule 3 years behind.
Part of delay was not only due to computer
programming but also due to Mitsubishi, who
welcome their manufactured beautiful bird
wings at Nagoya Airport on July 10th. They
are currently building regional jet which
will be a competition to Bombardier and Embraer.
Made-in-Japan jet aircraft will be finally
realized after 70 years of World War 2.
787 has longer wings compare to similar sized
767, has shorter body length compare to long
ranged 777, has bigger window ever to see
more blue sky. Fuel efficiency (20 percent
less than 767) makes possible to fly direct
to medium city (not hub airport of big city
but rather middle-sized-city), JAL introduce
Tokyo - Boston in 2012. ANA will battle with
Lufthansa 380 for Frankfurt route with installing
the fuel efficiency craft on Haneda basis
(not Narita). ANA has better Business Class
configuration (full flat sleeper seat) than Lufthansa's Business Class (angle sliding seat). A380 or B787, which you'd fly to Japan?
Or, do you still prefer to be on B747 the
Jumbo Jet? |

Not B787 but are you a fan of A380 families?
Narita Airport has five routes for the
big whale (bird), Frankfurt (FRT) by Lufthansa, Paris (CDG) by Air France, and Singapore (SIN) by Singapore Airlines. The most recent installed by Korean Air,
the least seats (more individual space with
only 407 seats in all) of ever by Korean Air, which is for Seoul (ICN). Their time
schedule for departures and arrivals are
as shown below, all activities are based
on Japan Standard Time. Skymark just firmed to order first Japan's A380
commencing service on 2014, perhaps to London
and/or to Frankfurt.
