Boeing’s 747 Jumbo Jet is arguably the most recognisable icon of 1960s technological accomplishment. This huge aircraft revolutionised commercial aviation like no other before it – the only other comparable innovation would be the introduction of the jet engine to the airliner field in the early 1950s.

For 35 years, since it entered service with Pan Am in 1970, the 747 has been the undisputed queen of the skies, notching up almost1,400 sales and flying millions of passengers safely across millions of miles. This classic Boeing design is about to surrender its position as the world’s largest airliner to the new Airbus A380 but the 747 will continue to play a major role in the plans of many carriers.

This special magazine looks at the history and development of the 747, through all of the various models and brings the story up-to-date by looking at Boeing’s proposals to further develop the design.
