I don't know whether this has been posted before, but here are photos from a media tour of the 787 Assembly plant.

The 787 is certainly much nicer on the eyes than the A380. Also in the series of photos is the 747-8.

BTW, I read somewhere that the delay in the 787's first flight is due to a problem with where the wing joins the body. Can anyone elaborate on this? It sounds like a pretty major issue.
