It was the first wide-body aircraft ever produced and features a two-aisle cabin that can seat over 366 passengers. The 747 set new standards for commercial air travel when it first entered service in 1970 due to its increased passenger and cargo capacity.

    The Boeing 747 is a large, wide-body commercial airliner known as the 'Jumbo Jet' or 'Queen of the Skies'. It was the first wide-body aircraft ever produced and remains one of the most recognizable in the world.

    Some key specifications of the Boeing 747 include a length of 70.6 meters, maximum weight of 377,842 kg, cruising speed of 555 mph or 893 km/h, and seating capacities that range from 565 passengers in a single class configuration to 412 passengers in a three-class configuration.

    In 1963, the United States Air Force started studies for a very large transport aircraft requiring new, more powerful and fuel efficient engines. Boeing, Douglas and Lockheed were selected for airframe studies, while General Electric and Pratt & Whitney worked on engine designs.

    The Boeing 747 is a wide-body commercial airliner and cargo


    transport aircraft, often referred to by its original nickname,
    Jumbo Jet, or Queen of the Skies.
    It is among the world's most recognizable aircraft and was the

    In 1963, the United States Air Force started a

    series of study projects on a very large


    strategic transport aircraft.
    Featuring only four engines, it also required
    new engine designs with greatly increased
    power and better fuel economy.
    After a downselect, Boeing, Douglas and
    Lockheed were given additional study
    contracts for the airframe, along with General
    Electric and Pratt & Whitney for the engines.

    The Boeing 747 is a large, wide-body (two-

    aisle) airliner with four wing-mounted engines.


    Seating capacity is more than 366 with a 34
    3 seat arrangement.

    The 747-400 is an improved model with increased range. It

    has wingtip extensions of 6ft (1.8m) and winglets of 6ft


    (1.8m), which improve the type's fuel efficiency by four
    percent compared to previous 747 versions.
    The 747-400 introduced a new glass cockpit designed for a
    flight crew of two instead of three, with a reduction in the
    number of dials, gauges and knobs from 971 to 365 through
    the use of electronics. The type also features tail fuel tanks,
    revised engines, and a new interior.
    The passenger version first entered service in February
    1989 with launch customer Northwest Airlines on the
    Minneapolis to Phoenix route.
