Boeing Dreamlifter (N718BA)

Super Photo Lee........

I miss watching these big boys come into Paine Field.

wow great photo of the ultimate 747

Amazing aircraft to say the least. If they can do this with a 747 you would think that it would be feasible to construct a full double deck version for maximum passenger capacity.

Maybe a triple deck! 1000 psgrs!

I was so disappointed to not see it in the air when I was in SEA the last time. I saw it parked at Boeing Field. Watching it take off I'm sure is a treat.

Full double deck for maximum passenger capacity - Airbus did it with a lot fanfare, but production of the A380 has ceased already. The limit for airports and airlines seems to be around the 350 pax mark and as a result twin-aisle, twin-jets now are the norm for long haul, large capacity.

On the A380, I can't remember being in a plane with larger capacity than my graduating class.

But there comes a time when big is just big. Not better, just big. Seeing the seating map, with so many coach seats, it stretches the imagination as to how long someone can sit in a coach seat, in the belly of a huge beast. Hmm... I think I talked myself out of wanting to fly on one. *sigh*
