Last commercial passenger flight of the 747. Today.
Hard to believe. Spent so many years aloft in one of these.
Last landing today, a UAL bird, who knows, might even be a ship in my logbook, since UUL and Continental merged.
I started out in a -200 series (we called them rope-starts). Finished up in a -400.
The only time one of them scared me was in the sim.
Hard to believe they are gone.
Will live on for a while in cargo service. Was the original reason for the upper deck. Nose pivoted up for Ro-Ro cargo loading.
