Own a Piece of the Airplane That Helped Certify a Dream
Introducing our first-ever Boeing 787 Dreamliner PlaneTags, crafted from genuine carbon-fiber composite material from ZA004 (N7874), the fourth 787 built and one of the original aircraft in Boeing's Dreamliner flight-test program.
For nearly 16 years, ZA004 helped test, develop and advance the 787, completing more than 670 test flights and 2,250 flight hours during an extraordinary career devoted entirely to flight testing and development.
Now, authentic material from this historic aircraft has been preserved for collectors as the first release from our official collaboration with Boeing.
OUR PLANE'S STORY
ZA004 was built to test the Dreamliner. The aircraft made its first flight on February 24, 2010, joining Boeing's original 787 flight-test fleet. Its assignments included aerodynamics, high-speed performance, propulsion, structural flight loads, community noise and extended operations testing.
That work contributed to the extensive test program leading to a major milestone on August 26, 2011, when the Boeing 787 Dreamliner received FAA and EASA type certification.
But certification wasn't the end of ZA004's story. The aircraft remained a working Boeing test platform for years. It performed the 1,000th flight of the 787 program, served as a Boeing ecoDemonstrator testing more than 25 new technologies, and continued supporting Dreamliner development through 2025.
After more than 670 test flights, 2,250 flight hours and visits to more than 30 airports, ZA004 made its final flight on February 11, 2026, from Boeing Field to Pinal Airpark in Arizona.
ZA004 never spent its career carrying passengers, but it helped make those flights possible. Read the remarkable story of ZA004.
The Material That Helped Define the Dreamliner
The 787 represented a major advancement in the use of composite materials in commercial aviation. Approximately half of the Dreamliner airframe by weight is composite material, with carbon-fiber composites used extensively throughout its primary structure.
787 PlaneTags are crafted from genuine carbon-fiber composite material from ZA004, preserving not only a piece of an important flight-test aircraft, but also a piece of the technology that helped define the Dreamliner.
On August 26, 2011, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner received FAA and EASA type certification. Exactly 15 years later, on August 26, 2026, ZA004 becomes our first Boeing 787 Dreamliner PlaneTag and the first release from our official collaboration with Boeing.

PlaneTags are:
- Authentic - made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal.
- Unique - each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags.
- Collectible - each one is numbered in a limited edition and comes attached to a display card.
- Versatile - comes with a durable metal ring, strong enough to attach to luggage or keys or display.

PlaneTags are made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. Because PlaneTags are made from real fuselage, each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. These variations and imperfections are not product flaws. They are part of the beauty of PlaneTags. As a result, you will not have an option to select the color of your PlaneTag.
