Four Engines, it's going to be really huge.
Boeing entering same space where Airbus A-380 is not doing well.

Boeing 747 always had 4 engines. Nice to see Boeing upgrading their old Jumbo Jets !
from 3 1/2 decade she is called as "Queen Of Skies" with unbeatable safety and flying records,
She was a Queen
She is a Queen and no doubts
She will remain as a Queen.
and pilots say 747 is one of the easiest plane to takeoff and land in any condition
:bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :salute: :salute: :salute: :salute:
Some pilots also say that AirBus because of its technology is easiest, they also add that, you need to do some efforts to fly a boeing but airbus is ....a butter.... :thumbsup:
@asinghatiya totally agree with you ! its like heaven working with airbus compare to boeing because of room inside cockpit or Electronic bay under cockpit is quite large compared to boeing (comparing b/w 320/21 and 737) ,
slowly intermediate range aircrafts are replaced by 320/21 instead of b737 or even now days they are equal, but coming to intercontinental still airbus need to work hard like comparision b/w 330 to 777 , or 380 to 747! and again 380 needs twice the length of runway where 747 can land and takeoff.
