Seeing a widebody aircraft at DCA is extremely rare , and has only happened a handful of times throughout the years. Two others were weather diversions of a DC-10 and 767, and a 787 was in for display. The Orbis was at DCA for display, having just completed conversion, and by sheer coincidence I photographed it exactly 2 months later passing through ANC on it's first eyecare mission.
