This thing is coming along nicely. Here is a blog with many pics of the progress of the 787 so far. Those wings look sharp (literally)

Neat stuff, but the Collins displays are pretty hacked up. Not to sound to a.netish but last I check a display that showed your climb profile was VNAV not LNAV, and maybe I'm just used to deal with smaller engines, but having 97% N1 but 103% N2 wouldn't be too good for long term engine use.

Roll out is 07-08-07. Besides my birthday, it is the second most exciting thing occuring in the month of July!

I toured the Boeing factory last month - pretty sweet seeing the first one.

Actually, that's the other way around. Biz aircraft are slowly converting to Collins from Honeywell because of reliability/interface issues.

VNAV is your climb profile.. hence Vertical NAVigation.
Climb N1's up in the high altitudes on GE engines are typically above 100%....
We were doing normal power T/O's in the 767 today with the pratt 4060's and TO N1 was 101 something percent.

I know that... The picture that they have of the MFD and PFD have a vertical navigation picture and it says "LNAV PATH". Also, I've seen N1s above 100%, but not N2s higher then N1s.

I believe that it is labeled as LNAV because it is showing a cross section of the airspace that the LNAV will be flying above and through. Also I don't see the magenta path for a VNAV profile.
