I made an edit a couple posts back in this thread, about hints a plane coming to Portland might be a brand-new green plane. Really, the first hint is "Boeing-owned". You can start checking the other factors after that gets your attention. It flies with a Boeing callsign for testing and painting until the purchase is completed later at a Boeing delivery center in Seattle #KBFI, Everett #KPAE or Charleston #KCHS. #aviation #avgeek #business #travel

Today I drove to PDX Airport #KPDX and got pictures of what I think is the same 737 MAX8 that arrived unpainted on the 3rd, now out of the paint hangar and departing with its United paint. It flew as a Boeing-owned plane to Boeing Field in Seattle, where presumably the purchase by United will be completed and they'll take delivery there. #aviation #travel #avgeek
