| N787BA - Boeing Aircraft Co. B787-8 |
This airport is aptly named after the main tennant, Boeing Aircraft Co. This is where the narrowbodies are flown from Renton to be finished and delivered to customers worldwide. It provides for some interesting subjects you can safely say you'll only be able to see here unless you want to make a trek around the world. Boeing also uses this airport for flight testing of its other widebody products including the 787 and 747-8

There are many spots around the airfield to get pictures like the above examples. The Museum of Flight on the south end of the airfield provides for some good approach shots when landings are being made on 31L. There is also a haphazardly put together public viewing area just south of the control tower where most of the general public go to watch the happenings at the field. Other locations can be found by just driving around to see what gives you the best vantage for your subject. Keep in mind though that most of these areas are parking lots for businesses and if asked to leave, do just that. Always respect the laws and signs and you should be able to enjoy a hassle free experience.
The airport also has a great variety of traffic other than Boeing that includes major cargo companies, business aircraft, light GA aircraft, and amphibians that frequent the islands in Puget Sound.
