NEW YORK — A Boeing 787 was in the air on a test flight Saturday, the first since the new airliner was grounded three weeks ago because of a battery fire.
The company says the aircraft was flying in and out of Boeing Field in Seattle, planning to spend an hour and a half in the air Saturday.
The Federal Aviation Administration granted permission for test flights on Thursday.
