Dreamliners losing familiar green sheen
The major components of Boeing's 787 won't be composed of aluminum, so the planes in production won't have the familiar green coating. Instead, the 787 will roll along the Everett factory floors in a shade of gray, said Mary Hanson, with 787 communications.
Also,all 787 Dreamliners will have white wings.

It should be 50% on the B787 if not mistaken.Composites are great but Maintenance takes a long time if structure is damaged.
