Quoting Would you believe it went 'tech'. Dont know what the problem was but for a nearly new aircraft it cant be good...... At least its on its way tho..... i reckon it shud miss lhr today and just come straight to man

Manchester Airport has this morning (Monday) tweeted a delayed arrival into Manchester tonight currently estimated at 2215. So presume if that schedule holds it will take off from Heathrow some time after 2100? Watched the 787 landing at Heathrow last night just after 2300 - a mere 16 hours (and three years) late.

I'm at Heathrow this weekend, is there any chance of getting a glimpse of the 787 or will it be long gone?
Thanks

Hi Hitchings29
I am also at Heathrow this weekend as usual but yes you can catch the 787 down at BA's engineering base on the weekend as it land on Friday at 0900 then stays over the weekend at the BA base until 1st May when it departs also at 0900 so it's best if you come on Friday mate!

787 due to flypast Rolls Royce Derby at 09:00 27th April then to LHR for approximately 09:30. Currently landing 27R but that could easily switch to 27L for this flight.

After Derby it actually went to fly-by EMA, MAN, LTN then landed at LHR about 10:40. Now parked up at T5 between all the BA traffic so almost impossible to see other than the tail.
I believe it's going to be at LHR until 1/5/12. Not sure of the ETD or where it's going to park up. BA maintenance would be a good guess. Anyone with good intel?

787 is parked at BA maintenance behind the rather large hill. Only able to see the tail when I just drove past and couldn't get a full view of it. Might get a better view walking around though. Never posted on her before but hope this is ok.
