Spotted from home today in Portland: a brand new green unpainted Boeing 737 MAX8 on approach to Portland Int'l #KPDX on the aircraft's first flight out of the Boeing factory at Renton #KRNT. Each one is a new puzzle: I think this one is going to Norwegian Air Sweden due to the pre-painted rudder (with Norwegian Air Shuttle pattern) and the ADS-B data (indicating Swedish registration). It taxied to the Boeing Portland Paint Hangar. #UnpaintedAirplane #PicklePlane #aviation #avgeek #PNW

This afternoon I spotted a green unpainted Boeing 737 MAX8 on approach to Portland #KPDX, coming from the Boeing 737 factory in Renton #KRNT. It was probably the plane's first flight. Callsign was Boeing 940. After landing it taxied to the Boeing Portland Paint Hangar. The pre-painted rudder and winglets look like this plane's customer is Oman Air. ADS-B also showed OM registration. #UnpaintedAirplane #PicklePlane #aviation #avgeek #PNW
