Boeing delivers final 747 jumbo jet in Seattle to Atlas Air
Boeing is delivering its final 747 jumbo jet on Tuesday after a ceremony at the company’s factory in Washington state.
The jet has served as a cargo plane, a commercial aircraft capable of carrying nearly 500 passengers, transport for NASA's space shuttles and the Air Force One presidential aircraft since it first took flight in 1969. It revolutionized travel by connecting international cities that never had direct routes, while also helping to democratize passenger flight.
In the past 15 years, however, Boeing and its European rival Airbus have introduced more profitable and fuel-efficient wide-body planes that have just two engines, compared to the 747′s four. The final plane is the 1,574th built by Boeing in the Puget Sound region of Washington state.
A crowd of current and former Boeing workers is expected to be in attendance for the final send-off, and the last jet is being delivered to cargo carrier Atlas Air.
