November 15, 200520 yr Long live the 747! She is the true queen of the skies.This new design is soo beautiful!
November 17, 200520 yr The wings are bent!It looks like a model kit gone badly wrong.Sorry, but to me it looks awful with those wings.
November 17, 200520 yr >The wings are bent!Eureka!Similar wings are in the 787. No one designs for "look" but to squeeze out every ounce of effficiency.Michael J.http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/pmdg_747F.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_beta_member.jpg Michael J.

November 17, 200520 yr ain`t matter how the B748 is "derived"... What counts more is - "Who is the launch customer" ;-)Cheers,Norbert - CLX001CEO Virtual Cargoluxwww.virtualcargolux.org

November 18, 200520 yr They could have called it the -800 because there were designs that never formed into reality. Kind of like software that is relesaed as version 1.0, and when you get an update, it could be 1.6, but .1-.5 were updates in house until the correct one which was 1.6. Just a guessAnd these 2 launch customers are great news for Boeing, both are big cargo haulers, I wouldn't be surprised to see more sign on. The A380F just seems too big for everyone except FedEx and UPS
