During a luncheon of the famed Wings Club at the Museum of Flight at Boeing Field a year ago, heads turned when a mammoth, humpback- shaped plane slowly taxied past the windows.

It was the Large Cargo Freighter, developed to ferry the wings and fuselage barrels of Boeing's 787 Dreamliner. The pilot was Joe MacDonald, The Boeing Co.'s chief 747 test pilot.
