Notes:

The first ever landing of a B777 at Hong Kong. IF you note the registration, it is still carrying it's test reg. However, on the nose you can clearly see "NB" so you are basically looking at VR-HNB. This aircraft came in from Seattle for proving flights at HKG before delivery (Fuji Velvia Slide)

Nice pic Andy!!.....However I thought the first 777 to visit Hong kong was N777UA, the one in full United colours but with "Boeing 777" titles on it. I could be wrong though.
