The Dreamliner is an impressive looking aircraft - I remember seeing the Ethiopian one back in September
I don't like the interior look though, I wouldn't want to book a flight on one and end up in the middle section where I couldn't see a thing through the window. Those seats used to drive me mad when I went on the 747.

Don't you mean "tap"?... with an electronic faucet
Sabena and Sobelair - gone but never forgotten.

Faucet is the actual term
I'm starting to warm up to the 787. After having seen it in real life twice, and having walked in and around it for quite some time, I have to say I'm starting to like it.
It's just... the nose still reminds me of the Caravelle.
Anyway, thanks for the report André, seems like LOT has quite a strong product on their hand. Let's see if they can use her to her full potential.

Perhaps, but in my Cabin Attendant Manuals, they're called faucets.

LOT is indeed, like many other airlines, in very heavy water. Cut costs, destinations, reducing the fleet, ask some aid to the government, etc etc.
But they offer a very good and warm service on board their aircrafts. Aircrafts are always clean.
Aero Freight International is selling now wide body freight ex-BRU to WAW with onforwarding connections to JFK and ORD and this for a limited time.

I taxied past the 2 dreamliners in WAW on the 26th of last month but was to late to realize it was the 787.
Then yesterday I say the one from your trip making touch-and-go's in KRK and I'm really amazed by the wingflex.
It really is a wonderful aircraft

Thanks for your report, André ! It was nice to see you all on saturday, even for a short time
Re: First LOT Dreamliner AvGeek trip 5/01/2013
Thank you for the report, I was on your flight that day in 28A. Still have to sort out the pics, have like 80 of them, will post later. Just got back from WAW yesterday on -LRB and to my surprize, was greeted with champagne, prawns, all LOT BRU staff and a model plane of the Dreamliner. Quite a party! Greets to my fellow passenger behind me who tok my pic in the cockpit with the captain! Dank u
