The 787-9 delivery is delayed to July. Does that mean it will go back to Seattle after the show? |

Yes indeed. Apparently the cabin is full with marketing stuff and needs to be refurbished after the air show.

WOW I have seen some impressive take offs before eg A300 prototype at Farnbourgh way back In time, but that B787 footage is stunning ! I wonder what the A350 will do ? It's got to go vertical and do a wing over ? Or just do a barrel roll like the B707 did way way back in time  |

It's not a vertical takeoff, they are cheating with the camera angle.

I agree not vertical, but still a steep climb out ?
