Well. It seems as if this topic has waited for me. On German TV somebody said, that from this moment on, nobody on this planet will ever be able
to buy a brandnew Boeing 747. Because in Seattle, they stopped to build 747s.
And afaik, that worldwide was the one and only place where 747s had been built, since 1969.
This is what the manufacturer himself publishes today:

So. Feel free to share links, jetphotos (linked to the database or not yet published) stories and history about the Boeing 747 with me.
Lufthansa was and still is part of the Boeing 747 history, since 1970. Since more than 52 years....

Lufthansa Airbus 350-900 from EDDH Hamburg nonstop to SFAL Port Stanley
This topic is meant exactly as Gabriel and me mean our topic msfs 2020 in the jetphotos simulator section. It is meant as an invitation to write something when you have begun to make some experiences with that topic.
So, I have not been on board, as you probably assume. Why not. Ahm. The wrong a/c type, in my eyes... ...
Seriously, that was a charter flight operated by Lufthansa for the Alfred Wegener Institute for research on continent Antartica, Bremerhaven. The Stern magazine, Hamburg said,
13,700 km nonstop.
Now it's up to me to translate that into decent aviation English, isn't it. Ok, why not.
13,700 km nonstop, or 7398 nautical miles nonstop, on board a LH-A359 . That's not bad, compared to the LH-B744 .
The LH-A359 has at least 293 seats, or, dependant on the registration even 319 seats. So, I assume that the LH-A359 to Port Stanley was not packed (dt.: voll besetzt) .
But even with five or...Last edited by LH-B744; 2021-02-03, 01:12. Reason: The longest nonstop flight in Lufthansa history, until today. -
Everything about Dorval. Destinations, aircraft, history
Sometimes, I really hate the internet. It always seems to provide data which is not older than 12 hours.
But that is only a cheap lie.
Since when the heck is MTPP deleted from the RV (Air Canada Rouge) flight plan, and why? And that's a fact, I just "telephoned" with RV. -
Air France 747 tribute flight(s)
How do you operate your bedroom simulator? With consecutive destinations? I do, since a few months.
My last destination was Cointrin. So, my next departure is Cointrin. With F-GITH. via de Gaulle to Dorval. or Princess Juliana.
Stay tuned on this channel. AF-B747 was always there, as far as I can think back. For 45 years. And they provided a bunch of really fantastic 747 destinations. Let me show you two or three.
[The LH CEO probably gets wild when he sees his friends in foreign ships. But I think the topic is worth it. It is a farewell. Only 2 or 3 destinations. Paris deserves a little help from friends.]
