Ford and Boeing Tours

On Thursday morning the LGO class toured Ford's Dearborn production plant. Here Ford produces F-150 series trucks. No cameras were allowed inside, so I only have the outside shot. Being able to tour these plants in such short succession is a great opportunity. We can better discern the differences in the plants' layout and operations. Touring the Ford plant was a great learning experience.

Thursday afternoon we flew to Seattle to prep for touring Boeing's 787 and 777 production plants as well as looking at their Dreamliner packages. Pictures were not allowed in the production facilities, but were allowed for the Dreamliner mockups.

Seeing commercial planes up close and personal all opened up is an amazing experience.

Different styles of lavatories available for purchase.
