Boeing 787 (shows as 004 on RB) shooting an ILS approach into KPAE and then going on to KBFI along with T33 chase plane Time now is 0008Z.  I am monitoring flight comms with ATC on scanner radio.

The 787 flew right by my house at 4000' on approach to KBFI - too bad it was too dark for a decent photograph.  My first visual on the 787, it is bigger that one might first imagine - also very quiet.  The RB tracking alerted to go outside and look for it.  I heard the pilot talking to Boeing ops on my scanner - the ILS approach was flown manually from the right seat.

I left my RB running in Seattle while I am away on business in Europe so that fellow RB users can monitor any potential 787 test flights.  My son has instructions to check the computer daily for lock-ups - which I have been experiencing recently with ver 3.13 for some unknown reason.   Wish that there was a way for me to look at my own RB network traffic while I am traveling.
