787 No. 1., aka ZA001,aka N787BA, rolled around under its own power for the first time this morning, according to a post with photos on FlightBlogger.
A more recent Twitter post indicates that she has performed her first high-speed/rejected takeoff roll this afternoon, and is preparing for a second run.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
Now that is nice to see!!!

I really liked that video. That plane has such gorgeous wings.

"Tex" Johnston would have lifted her off the runway!
Thanks for posting. She looks a lot prettier on the move than sitting still me thinks!
Thanks again
