I have played around with the idea of finding a large airplane, having it moved to a piece of property, gut ir out and turn it into a house. The wings would become patio decks. 747 would be perfect to having the master bedroom upstairs. The flight deck could be made into a lounge, or with a little shade-tree engineering, the ultimate flight simulator set-up. The biggest problems would come with the logistics of getting it moved from point A to point B.

I've heard that Delta is actually NWA, which makes sense to a degree because you see that Delta inherited the DC-9s that NWA was still flying them at the time. Also go to Wikipedia for Delta, you see that they declared bankruptcy just before the merger. And today you will see that Delta and KLM are still partners.

The outer doors of airliners normally can't be locked (in a sense that you would need a key to unlock them). Usually those planes are either flying (hence no access) or parked in a well controlled environment with restricted access and additional surveillance. There's simply no need to lock the doors. The people who get access to the apron of the airport are trusted (after several backtground checks) to not mess around with things they are not supposed to touch. In the "civilized part" of the world this works pretty well. If for whatever reason they want to make sure nobody got inside while the responsible people were not around, they tamper indication stickers (similar to the "warranty void if seal is broken" labels) on all doors and hatches. They don't prevent unauthorized access to the aircraft, but make evident someone was there. (I used to be an airport employee with "all areas" access, so I know the background. ;-) )

I worked for NWA from 2001, till the merger in 2008, then retired from DL in 2020. I started in a small station where we typically had DC-9's overnight. (10's, 30's, 40's and 50's) Every so often we would put a B727 to bed. Compared to the 9's, the 727 was a cavernous beast!

They weren't nicknamed NorthWorst for nothing, though! I flew them a number of times, including to and from Japan, via Hawaii. This one time, we got on the plane and the mid-40's flight attendant (stewardess) was really mean. We had just got on the plane, and she was munching on a bag of chips, not saying the traditional on-boarding greeting, and not handing out pillows, magazines or the like; like they usually do. I wondered why her and the other flight attendants had such a bad attitude. It wasn't but a few years later that I was recruited to fly with NW as a steward, (since I also spoke fluent Japanese and conversational German) that when they flew me to Minneapolis for a final interview, did it become apparent as to why the bad attitude. Here's why: 1). Their pay period didn't start until the plane wheels were literally off the ground! However, they were expected to be in uniform and at the airport two hours before! 2). Even if you are more qualified (fluent in the languages served on that route), seniority deems that you need to be there for probably 5-10 years on crappy routes that make you less money, before you can get onto a route that you were actually hired for many years before! 3). They would not get put up in nicer hotels, but on some routes, dangerous dumps. In the staff lounge at NW's HQ, on the day I was there, there was a poster, calling on other flight attendants to bring forth any information that could lead to the arrest of the perpetrator who raped and killed one stewardess in Detroit at the dumpy hotel the crew was put up in. (Guess what route they said I'd be on "for a couple of years"? -Yup! Detroit to Memphis, or some even shorter route.) So, needless to say, I turned them down, because the pay was just horrible, and no guarantee of getting the Japanese or German speaking routes, even in 10 years! THAT explained a lot about the last time I ever flew NW from Honolulu! Those are not ideal conditions to work in. It's no wonder they got the bad nickname, and eventually got bought up. That attitude was from the top, and all the way down to the bottom baggage handlers! Now, as for the BEST airline experience I ever had, was the first time on a jet that I could remember (on a charter airlines: "Atlantis" Super DC-8, from OAK-FRA) as I had gone to Germany as a baby to go see my grandparents a few times before I could remember doing so. Anyway, the best overall experience was with Pan Am in their Clipper Class from SFO-NRT on a 747-SP. (I think that's what plane it was...) Talk about service! The BEST Coach or Economy Class flight and service was from LAX-NRT on Singapore Airlines on a 747-400! (Again, I think that's what the plane was.) Here too, the service was incredible, especially for Coach! Currently I like ANA, JAL and LuftHansa, along with Singapore Airlines. My favorite plane to ride was the Lockheed L-1011-400 TriStar on PSA, TWA, or ANA. Great plane to fly on, and it had a great record of no crashes. It was the first plane certified to land by itself in fog. And, my grandfather was in charge of seeing it built, along with the SR-71 earlier. (He worked in the Skunk Works at Lockheed in Burbank, many years ago.) So, that was a sentimental favorite, as well! I miss that plane and now the 747. Not too many 747s left in commercial service anymore! United just stopped flying them recently, as did a few other airlines. Nice vid and pics! Thank you!

Boeing sets a mandatory service life limit on all their jets. For the 747, I believe it's 165,000 hours in the sky or 50,000 takeoff/landing cycles. Once a jet reaches their limit, they automatically lose their airworthiness and Boeing will not provide service for them. Boeing pushed for service life limits after the Aloha airlines metal fatigue disaster where an old jet with too many cycles suddenly ripped apart. However, most 747s are retired around 110,000 hours because the maintenance costs would drastically increase after that. Recently, 747s are going into early retirement because of poor gas mileage.
@flyingfiddler90q
@flyingfiddler90q 8 жыл бұрын
Nope. Airbus are life limited due to European certification rules, but most American built jets are not. I don't know how many cycles the oldest 747s have, but a DC-9 was static tested up to 128,000 cycles (pressurization/depressurization) and showed no signs of failure. That's probably equivalent to something over 200,000 flight hours.

To the person who doesn't understand: Airplanes like other vehicles get old and worn out. These planes are being used as a source of spare parts for other aircraft. What happens a lot is that parts stop being manufactured as time goes on. The 747 currently being built are to a modified design and many parts were phased out and replaced with newer ones. Other older aircraft are kept flying by taking parts from these planes. Frequently the airplanes you find being parted out like this have suffered a severe hard landing and the landing gear and the airframe have serious damage and need reconstruction, the airplane was near mid-life and the reconstruction to make it safe for passenger travel cost more that its worth. The airplane is then sold to the scrap yard. While the landing gear might be in bad condition the rest of the airplane is full of parts that are in good condition and can be salvaged. Other airplanes have reached the end of their service life and are being used as a source of parts that don't generally ware out like floor panels the toilet seats, the blue water tank, arm rest in chairs stuff like that.

Although many of the old Boeing jumbos are being retired due to its latest successor A380, the latest 747-8 will still be in passenger service for about another 6 years. Its an amazing aircraft so there's still a chance to fly in one of these amazing birds. Lufthansa and British airways operate a good majority of them. KLM is also still operating a fleet 747-400s which will still be in service for about another 2 years. So the queen isn't quite dead yet!
