Chief 787 test pilot ready to put Boeing's new Dreamliner through its paces

Pilots lift the Boeing 787 Dreamliner's nose off the ground during a taxi test Saturday at Paine Field in Everett. The airplane's first flight could come as early as today, weather permitting. If everything goes as planned, it will land at Boeing Field in Seattle after a five-and-a-half hour flight.
