An Airplane Drew an Airplane in the Sky

This past Wednesday and Thursday, Boeing made an 18-hour endurance test flight of their 787-8 over 22 states. The route they selected was designed to draw the outline of a Boeing jet in the skies! The live flight tracking app Flight Aware caught the entire outline. Notice that the nose of the plane is pointing toward Boeing's headquarters in Seattle. Why would they do this? Because they could. Oh, then there's the publicity, of course. -via Atlas Obscura
