Boeing 747 (Jumbo Jet) Strip-down - Engineering Giants

While we wait for the next update from LR...lol, here is a nice documentary on how British Airways perform maintenance on the 747, kind of long (1 hour) but is well worth it. It's amazing to see how they disassemble these beasts, checked every single component and reassembled it in only 5 weeks. Impressive!!!

It's a great show, and the whole thing happens just a hour from me! Sadly, Cardiff sees more flights coming in for maintenance than actual scheduled traffic. It's still fun though landing a PA-28 in front of a BA 777. :-)

It is going to be fun hopping 777s from Heathrow to Cardiff and back...

 

I remember seeing the BA facilities years ago, probably not long after they were built. An old college friend of mine used to live in Llantwit Major...

Thanks for this link. An excellent program with a refreshing minimum of unnecessary 'discovery/nat geo channel' over-dramatisation! :)
