Wow! How I wish I was there! BTW, was there a water-canon salute?
ReplyDeleteYey!!. The First ever 787 to land in Manila.... Hope ANA, JAL And Qatar will also deploy their Boeing 787 here in manila....
ReplyDeleteDreamiliner? I also read in one article saying this aircraft is the largest built by Boeing. LOL
ReplyDeleteI saw the plane personally when I was at NAIA T1. Very nice plane but RBA colors are so lifeless.
ReplyDeleteno watet canon salute because RBA has been flying to MNL for the longest time. Water canon salute is given only during an inaugural flight.
ReplyDeleteDi uso water canon salute sa Pinas!
