….up in the air again. Good news today that the 787 may be cleared for flight in a few weeks. I have booked a midnight flight on a 787 with China Eastern in a few weeks from Shanghai to Singapore. As I will be arriving at the Shanghai airport from Los Angeles just 3 hours earlier, I am planning a full nights sleep on one of those great 787 flat beds. Wish me luck!
