Nice. Not seen a “splump” for years.

About eighteen still fly with another five in storage. 🙂

The SP is a lovely aircraft, shorter and taller (tail) than the mainstream 747. Originally called the 747SB (short body) before being given the prefix of SP ( Special Performance). Nice capture, wonder how many still fly?

Great pics, I really like the SP. I heard this one on my scanner yesterday.
