Just Had a look at Flightaware, and there is two Boeing 747-8's scheduled for test today... Not sure which ones , i think they are the Qatar Amiri and Cathay Pacific ,.

Departure Times ( From Flightaware )

BOE2 B748 Snohomish County (KPAE) 11:45a PST 02:24p PST
BOE557 B748 Grant Co Intl (KMWH) 09:29a PST 11:27a PST

If im correct BOE2 is the Qatar Amiri and BOE557 is the Cathay Pacific..

Air India Test Flight,

The Only Test's Out of Paine today were a B773 for Emirates and a B763 for Uzbekistan Airlines

the Cathay Pacific Test Flight Was cancelled ( probs A Problem with the Aircraft ) and BOE2 the Qatar Amiri BBJ never took Off , No idea why ..

Air India's B787 was up on test though ( Out of Boeing Field I think )

[(EGMH) MD-11]

Typical.

Ok, The Cathay Test flight was cancelled but got Un-Cancelled. When it lands i'll try and get a Pic of it On the webcam and post it Up..

[(EGMH) MD-11]

ATM there is two Boeing 787/748 On test today and that is the JAL 787 1st flight and Cathay Boeing 747-8F

BOE557 B748 Grant Co Intl (KMWH) 09:40a PST 10:10a PST

( There is a DAL B767 Delivery Flight today if anyone interested )

[Tony]

B-LJG test flight today, landed approx 19.45 UK

[(EGMH) MD-11]

Cathay B748F test Flight

It seems that the JAL 787 Test flight was Cancelled ( Only did a Taxi Test or something ) so The Cathay is the Only 747 / 787 test Of the Day Out of KPAE. But Maybe it will do what the Cathay 747 did yesterday ..
