FOTOS: El último Boeing 747 sale de la fábrica
El último Boeing 747 de la historia ha salido de la fábrica de la compañía en Everett.

El avión de fuselaje ancho N863GT (c/n 67150) se entregará a Atlas Air a principios de 2023.

"Durante más de medio siglo decenas de miles de dedicados empleados de Boeing han diseñado y construido este magnífico avión que realmente ha cambiado el mundo. Estamos orgullosos de que este avión siga volando por todo el planeta en los años venideros", declaró Kim Smith, vicepresidente y director general de Boeing para los programas 747 y 767.

La producción del 747, el primer avión de doble pasillo del mundo, comenzó en 1967 y duró 54 años, durante los cuales se construyeron un total de 1.574 ejemplares.

A finales de noviembre, la aerolínea recibió el penúltimo 747 de su flota. El N862GT (c/n 67149) se terminó con los colores distintivos de la compañía suiza de transporte de mercancías Kuehne+Nagel y será operado en su nombre por la aerolínea estadounidense en virtud de un acuerdo a largo plazo.

También se espera que el último 747 se pinte con una librea similar y se explote en virtud del mismo acuerdo.

According to Boeing, the 747-8 has a revenue payload of 133.1 tonnes, enough to transport 10,699 solid-gold bars or approximately 19 million ping-pong balls or golf balls.
