Information:
Since the 1st prototype flew in 1969, over 1,100 Boeing 747, 'Jumbo Jets', have been produced.
Announced in 1985 & 1st flown in 1988, the 747-400, can fly 416 passengers about 8,380
miles. The 747-400 has a two-pilot digital flight deck and a new interior
and is powered by stronger, more efficient engines. With its huge
capacity, extended range and improved fuel efficiency, the 747-400
offers the lowest operating costs per seat of any commercial jetliner.
In addition
to the passenger version, the 747-400 is offered as a combi -- carrying
passengers forward and cargo aft on the main deck -- as well as a
domestic, high-capacity version.
Improved avionics have allowed flight crew to be reduced to just 2 pilots.
