China News Service, February 2 (China News Finance Wu Tao) The reporter learned from Boeing that on January 31, US time, Boeing delivered the last 747, marking the end of the production history of this model for more than half a century.
As the world's first twin-aisle aircraft and super-large aircraft, the Boeing 747, known as the "Queen of the Sky", enables airlines to provide non-stop services across oceans.
Boeing employees who helped design and build the first 747 returned to the Everett factory to be honored.
The 747's journey began here in 1967, and the plant built 1,574 planes throughout the 747 program.
