Cathay Pacific is set to take off with its first Boeing Co. 747-8 freighter today.
The cargo plane will depart from Everett’s Paine Field at 1:10 p.m. and is headed for Hong Kong, according to FlightAware.
After a two-year delay, Boeing delivered its first 747-8 freighter to Cargolux earlier this month.
Cathay Pacific has 10 747 freighters on order with Boeing. Here’s a previous blog post about the Cathay freighter.
