If you're an airliner observer, historian, modeler, or simply have an interest in the Boeing 747, this book is For you. The Boeing 747 chronicles the history of this magnificent aircraft, taking you from its inception as the world's first wide-body airplane through the many upgrades and modifications that have made it a symbol of durability, range, and efficiency. In addition to being the world's largest and heaviest airliner, the 747 is probably the most widely recognized due to its 2nd level cockpit— a distinctive bulge in the forward part of the fuselage. Author David H. Minton guides you along an illustrated tour of all cargo, long-range, special performance, and foreign variations of the aircraft.
