Its also sad that we'll need to wait till 2011 to see it in SQ colours

The Dreamliner is a real beautiful aircraft. Hope to catch the live internet webcast. Since Singapore does not have satellite TV, I shall watch it on the internet but I hope the buffering goes fine and does not lag.

Nice.

OK I'm obviously in the minority here but I don't think it looks that great. I'll wait for final judgement to see what it does look like with its make up on. Then again apart from the B747 I don't think most planes look that great. I'm much more interested in what they are like on the inside.

Glad to know that I'm not alone.

It'd be easier on the eyes with the make-up on for sure. But from those pics - it looks identical to the 777 or A333?

I haven't made up my mind yet. So far the front is similar to the 777 and the back looks just like the 767. In the end what matters is what shape and size makes the plane most effecient. For me too what matters is the inside, though I do really enjoy a good looking airplane, like the 747.
