Time to say goodbye...

The last of the queens of the sky...

You just gotta love a 747. Such a classic lady

Dont talk about aircraft getting old especially if you are American... The damned B52 from Boeing again is over 50 yrs old and is supposed to be flying for another 50yrs... All planes are upgraded updated but there is obviously other reasons why they are grounded @sunsporter1649
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
That could be part of the upgrade... But im guessing an upgrade of already owned aircraft would be cheaper than buying new aircraft... The dreamliner the airbus types... @sunsporter1649

@braveheart21 the 747 is not fuel efficient... That's the main problem
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
Thats why they upgrade... Go front analog to digital... Better engines.. Could even go down to two or three more poweful efficient engines @Convivial

Very cool! Pretty plane....I'd love to drive that little car!
Punxi · 26-30, F
@Convivial Cool! I wish my car could crab! I'm an excellent parallel Parker....Not! What an interesting job! You have anything to do with installing those arm rests....that I white knuckle for dear life for the duration of my flight?
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Punxi very close actually... The ife, inflight entertainment system in the armrest
Punxi · 26-30, F
@Convivial Humph!! Small cabin! I may have hindered a component of two of yours!
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
Sad to see the 747s being taken out of service and grounded..
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@braveheart21 Aircraft get old, too. But if you want to see 747's by the dozen, still flying, visit here.

Rolling out the last of the 747s. It even outlasted the Concorde.
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
Both should still be flying... The crowning glory of the two great aviation pioneering countries... @Barefooter25
Jakefromnj · 41-45, M
It’s sad. The 74 is my favorite.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Jakefromnj one of my favourites too... Both a workhorse and a real lady
helenS · 36-40, F
What is it?
Convivial · 26-30, F
@helenS the last 747 to be built...
helenS · 36-40, F
@Convivial Aaaahhh ok thank you! 🌷

The last 747 will be cargo aircraft.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
