747 Experence

I'm sure I'm not the first to stumble on this but seeing as how the release of the PMDG 744 is coming I thought this was pretty cool. The exhibit for the first 744 built is opening soon at the Delta Airlines museum in Atlanta.

We have one such retired 747 at San Carlos museum, CA... It was interesting to get into the cockpit and try messing around..

Whats cool about the Delta exhibit is the plane is actually the first 747-400 built. It was the Boeing prototype before eventually going to Northwest before they became a part of Delta.

It's the old Flying Tiger one that they cut out, right?

Yep. I'm pretty sure that's one of the reasons why Pete chose that reg when he painted the DAL livery. I think a few of the liveries are the first or last 400s to that operator.

Oh yeah.. It's a cut out hull with the cockpit still in there.. Good to sometimes visit and feel the cockpit in there...
