Make way for the Queen of the Skies.

Nothing beats a 747...period.A true piece of art

[@Stacie45]

Perhaps the best measure of the greatness of the 747 is relevance across time. Still in production after 50 years. Of course those of us who love her see her as a beautiful airplane. But how many aircraft remain in demand for more than half a century? Not many.

[@apieceofdirt4681]

Beauty and grace. Nothing else compares.

After 50 years or so of watching the mighty 747 take off and land, I am still amazed and astonished that that massive airplane can actually fly! The A-380 may be bigger, but it doesn't look nearly as good as the Queen of the Skies!

[@itsjohndell]

And in 5 years when the last A-380 has been scrapped 747, at least as a Freighter will fly for another 30 years. A-380 production has ceased and no new orders. No secondary market either. When Pan Am was pushing Boeing for the 74 management at Boeing wasnt convinced that such a large passenger aircraft was going to succeed. To hedge their bets every single 74 0ff the line had strengthed floors and a swing up nose, effectively a Convertible Freighter. Airbus never took that into consideration and A-380 has no capability for conversion. Cheaper to scrap them. It was an ill conceived design introduced at the wrong time.

Awesome! What a treat to be able to do a walk through of the aircraft. Thanks to UPS, EAA, and the videographer. I am sure it was a lot of work, but it was a great thing to do.

[@thunderbird1921]

Good to see the 747 still flying strong, even after 50 years. UPS has made a very wise decision buying the 747-8.

[@eddyeel928]

What do you think is a better choice? The 777f from FedEx, or the 747-8 with UPS?

[@superskullmaster]

eddy eel if you need to carry shit that you can’t fit in the 777 then 748F it is.

Such a majestic huggge airplane Totally miss the double decker 747-8i which is much longer n bigger than 747-400s I m glad atleast we can see this beauty still on the air in the yrs to come as a freighter Im sure she'll be the only successful 4 engine airplane aftr 2030s even aftr all A380, 747-400s,a340s, il 76,il 96 r phased out N she's the most beautiful majestic plane of the lot..

[@thunderbird1921]

Is it just me, or does this variant seem even larger than other 747s?

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

@@thunderbird1921 Nope !!!! The 747-8F is longer in fuselage and has a longer wing span than the previous model !!!! also on the 8I Passenger version the hump is a lot longer, actually a second deck where as the freighter version does not need the second deck except for the cockpit so the nose can be raised !!! Boeing enlarged it rather than build a larger new plane to compete with the A380 !!! Boeing seen the hand writing on the wall on large 4 engine planes. And the -8 variant only uses the GE Genx engines !!! Good eye !!!!

Plane Aviation 747’s will still be flying when the last A380 hits the boneyard. Or haven’t you heard? The A380 is going out of production.

[@Jack3md]

The A380 is just too massive. They consume massive amounts of fuel per hour, a lot of airports had to spend millions and millions of dollars upgrading airport runways, taxiways, jet bridges, and no one wants to buy them anymore! The airlines made a costly mistake buying the A380, they should've gone with the 747-8(or the 787 instead, which many have) in my opinion.More fuel efficient, and doesn't have as many unneeded seats. 747's been around for many decades, looks beautiful and passengers have always loved to fly it. The Cargo market also loves them too, which is why they're still buying them. As the Qantas CEO stated, it's cheaper to fly two 787s than one A380.

No. White pilot shirts, brown slacks, gold and brown tie, thin little pinstripes on epaulets and the brown jacket and the optional brown hat has a UPS winged brass emblem with UPS wings on the shirt and jacket, black belt and black plain toe shoes. This is the second style uniform, the first being of a lighter brown with brown belt and shoes, and wearing of the hat was (supposedly) mandatory. I quit wearing one when the management pilots quit wearing them and now they are optional. The uniform United Airlines pilots wear resembles the UPS uniform, but in dark blue.

Is UPS the only U.S. based carrier that is actively flying 747's and buying more....? Thank goodness, because these jets are so beautiful to fly on and watch.

[@apieceofdirt4681]

Yep they sure are. When Boeing fulfills all of the UPS orders they will have the biggest-8 fleet in the world. Hopefully there’s still a Boeing left to fill those UPS orders after all the dumb shit they’ve done with the 737 MAX If another goes down after being certified to fly again they may be finished. That’s what happens when profits have a higher priority safety.

[@thenormanator9379]

So nice that they had this plane there and I had a chance to enter the plane, unlike the last time they had the Cathy Pacific 747-8. I was in line to get on the aircraft and then suddenly just as I got close to the stairs a guy in a suit and tie started counting people in line and stopped like 3 people in front and said that everyone behind that person wasn't going to get on. This was only at like 10 AM and the plane didn't even leave until like 7 the night. Still so angry about that, I understand stopping more people from entering the line but to just cut people out who waited for 40 minutes, so sad.

@@Madcapolo Probably. It was disappointing how the likes of British Airways, JAL and Qantas, big time traditional 747 customers, all passed on the -8. KLM asked Boeing to do a combi version but they refused (too busy with the max software, I guess). I reckon a lot of airliners would've bought that.
