BOEING 747
Erinnerungen an einen Giganten / Memory of a Giant
Tags
The Jumbo Jet, which was developed in only about six years and put Boeing in danger of bankruptcy, not only became the company's biggest commercial success, but is certainly the most popular passenger jet to this day. Anyone who has ever used it and has an interest in commercial aircraft remembers its huge proportions, outside and in, and its smooth flight characteristics.
This book tells the story of the development of the plane, highlights the ingenious technical solutions - for which the Boeing engineers could not rely on computer programmes at the time - and shows the different types built over the course of 50 years.
Above all, however, the book is a lavishly illustrated cultural history that once again immerses the reader in the luxurious life on the upper deck, discovers hidden areas for the crew and takes a close-up look at the famous, historic 3-person cockpit.
