The 1,000th Boeing 777 is joined together in the factory in Everett, Wash. On the current seven-per-month build rate, every third night the three major sections come together as part of an intricate dance performed by crane operators and others who use lasers to guide the airplane into the final body join position. The 1,000th 777 will be delivered to Emirates in March 2012.
