It must have been horrifying for everyone onboard.

Human error has always led to air disasters. So check, check and check again should be the motto of any aircraft serving or repairs!

this is horrifying tragedy

So many multiple variants, passenger, freighter, flying telescope, flying Laser, Air Force One, Carried the Space Shuttle, Fire fighter, Always working for NASA, in many, many ways...... *_for 50 YEARS_* The '47 has an extremely firm grip on it's very SPECIAL place in history, as one of the greatest planes ever built......!!! #InMyOpinion

This is the best way out for this Boeing's situation ,to create the new product from the old product ! I am just cherrish to all of the first 747 designers 😊

I will choose the airline that flies 747 over the other ones.

Does Vlad Pukin' use the short stairs on Russia's version of AF1? Asking for a friend.

747 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks Captain 👍

The best looking aircraft and it changed everybody's lives, forever.

My first international flight as a kid, barely 4 years old was on the flying Maharaja service out of JFK on an Air India Boeing 747. I flew it to Mumbai with my parents. I always liked to fly the Queen of The Skies. I miss flying on the Queen of the Skies. Will see if Boeing is able to pull off a revamp of the Boeing 747.

Nearly got to fly the B747-400. However I was forced to B777 just before starting the type rating course. However, the design is very old (the design was originally a Airforce tender back in the 1960’s, won by Lockheed Galaxy). The 400 was an modernised EFIS model which my company had about 54. Covid pandemic finished them off early but planned retirement was 2024. The replacement aircraft A350-1000, which has the same passenger capacity with fuel burn of 6 tons per hour. Much cheaper to operate and maintain, plus airlines are measured on average fleet age. I am now P1 on the A350. Wonderful airliner to fly.

I am afraid to say it's all about costs. I could Immagine a startup airline using them as there must be many around with many hours left in them going cheap. It was pulled out far too soon, airlines jumped on a cult to get rid of them far too soon.

I think that the weather was far from ideal and on hindsight the flight could have been delayed or cancelled, but the Pilots did a great job and lessons were learned by the Airline M.D. and the Air Safety Board.

Boeing 747 aircraft deserves her reputation as Queen of the Skies. Here capabilities need to be fully utilized.

If sully says they have lost their way,they have lost their way.

I flew on the 747 starting from 1979 to 1999 on company business trips, JAL to Tokyo and Lufthansa to Dusseldorf. Though first class was not as luxurious as now, for its time it was impressive and a comfortable flight in the good old days. First class was in the nose of the plane, so the huge jets were in back of us and it was pretty quit.

M'MMM PERHAPS IT'S POPULARITY FAILED BECAUSE IT KEPT ON FALLING OUT THE SKY? ACCORDING TO GOOGLE, 3, 740 PEOPLE WERE KILLED ABOARD THE DEAR OLD jUMBO

My last 747 flight was from LHR to Seattle in the main deck Club World section in 2019. Loved every moment of the flight.

I flew from Hawaii to Tokyo on Pan Am 747 in the 70's. I was 12 yrs old and the movies sucked in our section. 1st class wasn't full so the sewartess let me sit up there. I got to ditch my Mother and sister for the flight. Killer Elete was playing in 1st class. I got to enjoy 1st class treatment for that very long flight. I still remember it today. What an awsome opportunity and experience for a poor kid. I love those planes !

Get rid of those hot shots in Chicago, they are bleeding the company to death as what happened to TWA. MOVE UP EXPERIENCED STAFF TO MANAGEMENT AND GET THEM BACK TO THE PLANT. THEY NEED TO BE ON SITE AND TO HELL WITH APPEASING SHAREHOLDERS. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF ANOTHER ACCIDENT WERE TO TAKE PLACE AND THIS TIME SURVIVORS WOULD GO AFTER THE SHAREHOLDERS PERSONALLY WHO WANT TO MAXIMISE THEIR PROFITS OVER CUSTOMER SAFETY. BET THEY WOLUD SH!t Their pants when summoned to court.

if its Boeing i ain't going . Airbus all the way for me

Bull

Never trust a high-tech company that focuses on the stock market instead of the engineers! Never trust a high-tech company that is led by money counters, the so-called financial people!

I fullfill 1k like.👍👍

The company can be saved if the management staff acts now. With their history since the merger with McDonald Douglas, I just don’t see that happening until the regulators and the pilots union say enough.

5G!!

What should we expect after they willing merged with the corner cutting, scandalous McDonnell Douglas Corp.

The faa lost its way first it changed the description of approval people, D.M.I.R went away and started to approval of managers doing that job manager not experienced inspection people, you don't trust a job was done right and issue a 8130 come on think about it.

Our president cant even talk. Awesome

Excellent Video exposing BOEING’s deficiencies in striving for Safety, rather than Shareholders.

Pratt issue not an Airbus issue.

Boeing recent falling reputation is suitable for the new Air Force One. Where safety is Number-One priority!

One carries a national leader where is the other pampers an Israeli puppet at the cost of US taxpayer.

Not just at Boeing, but corporate executives in general need to get it in their heads, maintaining the reputation of the corporation is more important than squeezing out more profits.

Team airbus

🥰🥰🥰

I like this better than "The Flight Channel ". I don't need to read a bunch of text.

Damn, Putin up there doing his peck cable flies on board the presidential aircraft. I don't think Russia builds it's aircraft as answer to American aircraft, Russian tech and avionics is quite ahead of American tech.

There were no fatalities but most under garments were soiled.

Why not just build the 747x made fully of composites, fuel efficient engines

This is the best for vip or for president Mr putin far better than USA airforce one, inside this has the amazing features and looks super luxurious. I wish I would buy one.

I have flown the 747 operated by 15 carriers maybe a 150 times. It remains my best memory of flight experience. However, I made a trip to Hong Kong on the A380 recently and……. this is even another level.

Finger cross we will see soon , I do love the aircraft

Boeing can't engineer new planes ... so bringing back their well-engineered planes of 1970s is their only option

She will ALWAYS be the Queen !

How is a 2 engine plane more ‘dynamic’ then a four engine plane? More ‘efficient’ perhaps- that’s it
