The oldest Boeing 777 arrived on Tuesday at the Pima Air & Space Museum
in Arizona, where she will soon be exhibited. The aircraft landed after a
nearly 14-hour flight from Hong Kong at the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base
and was then towed to the nearby museum by road.
 
The Boeing 777-200, which carries the registration B-HNL, was the first 777
test airplane that Boeing built for certification. On 9 April 1994, the
aircraft was rolled out of the factory and on 12 June of that year it made
its maiden flight under great public attention.
 
The B-HNL, which was still called WA001 at the time, continued to fly for
Boeing as a test aircraft after the first flight. In 2000, the aircraft was
transferred to Cathay Pacific, where it was used until this spring. The
B-HNL was mainly used on routes within Asia.
