Now that the pressure of getting off the ground is past, Boeing is starting to get into the rhythm of regular test flights. Yesterday (Dec. 27th) ZA001 conducted a 2 hour flight over eastern Washington State and today it is conducting a third flight over Washington and Idaho states and that has lasted almost 6 hours, the longest flight thus far for the 787
No word on when ZA002 will resume its flight tests but it seems like the gear issues on it's first flight are a one off event that has occured on that airplane.
