Boeing 747 Special! in the December 2022 edition of Airliner World, we pay homage to one of the most iconic aircraft ever built – the Boeing 747. as the final examples roll off the production line, we have special ‘Boeing 747 Queens of the Skies’ content featuring an alluring range of articles. We chart the jumbo’s development, explore the many variants and models, plus hear memories from pilots who flew (and still fly) the quad-jet. We speak to Cathay Pacific, join a reader on his final 747-400 trip, and present a snapshot of eye-catching special liveries. Also, we travel to Norway, from where we join the flight deck crew of a Widerøe Embraer E190-E2 –part of our ‘From the Cockpit’ series – on a rotation to the Arctic north, before sitting down with the airline’s chief executive.
