If you happen see a unique airplane flying over east Wichita this afternoon, it might be Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner.
The plane is expected to land at McConnell Air Force Base, next-door to Boeing, between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. today.
It will be in Wichita for three days as part of Boeing’s 787 world Dreamliner tour.
Spirit AeroSystems’ employees who work on the 787 program along with Boeing employees will have the opportunity to tour the composite airplane while it’s in town.
The Dreamlifter, Boeing’s specially-modified airplane that carries 787 parts from suppliers to Boeing, will also be in Wichita.
Media will be able to see the plane this afternoon.
