Boeing launches a new 747 jumbo model
 

amazing how many places this one goes! :)

That is a very cool looking bird! :thumbsup

FACT: The 747s wing tips can flex 26 feet before they snap off!

So technically no matter how high you are in the sky, theres really only 26 feet between you and the ground. :1orglaugh

Good to see the improvements....hand it to those fuckers over at Airbus...aren't they fucking french?

It will be interesting to see how much a re-work of the 747 will bring considering that the A380 designed new from ground up. I am no pro. just my thought.

34 extra passengers? give me a break.

I like it.. by the way how long have to wait before we see it fly?

747 are awesome looking planes. Glad they are keeping them around.

Amazing to think that the 747 has been around longer than most people who post here. Amazing design for its time.

airbus - EADS fucked boeing big time with their badass monster...
let's face it: they're on the wave

no kidding

the only reason why the 747 would ever be replaced by the Airbus is because of the extra costs involved with a 4 engine design

You are an idiot. Take another look at the airbus 380

That thing is a beast

Just like my cock! :pimp

They flew this plane over at Seafair this year in Seattle. They did a low flight right over Lake Washington. Let me tell you, this plane is ENOURMOUS. It seriously blacked out the sky as it came over Seward Park. Pretty dope.

Looks beautiful, wave of the future :D

damn, that's amazing!

now thats a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE bitch!

you can spot the sig whores here... this "new" 747 is only 5m (15 feet) longer than the existing 747s.

There is no new technology here and the airbus a340 is much much longer and has been around for years.

huge baby, heard Airbus also lauched a new jumbo plane

:smokin

I would love to get on board.
