Boeing 747 (part 1)


The queen of the skies… the Boeing 747. What can I say about this aircraft…
-First commercial flight: January 1970
-More than 1,500 Boeing 747 left the factory
-Passenger and freighter version



Below I show 5 pictures of 5 different airliners.


TF-AAK Iron Maiden -Boeing 747-400
Iron Maiden paid a visit at Schiphol on 6 June 2016. The heavy metal band hired this aircraft for the Book of Souls World Tour. Two close-up pictures of this nice painted aircraft. On the front fuselage, you can see the name “Ed Force One” and all concert places.
