Image: Boeing rolls out first 747-8 freighter out of paint hangar

Today seems to be a day for Boeing 747 images.

Boeing moved the first 747-8 Freighter out of the paint hangar in Everett, USA, sporting a special “light” livery, which is white with blue accents.

It features an oversized “8” on the background of the tail as well as “747-8” on the belly.

The light livery, which saves time and expense compared to the full Boeing livery, will remain on the airplane until the flight-test program is completed. After flight test, it will be refurbished and delivered to Cargolux.
