Guest Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Original. I've flown on this thing. It is impressive. Of course, the wings stayed on the whole time. Someone told me they had flown on this thing and they couldn't tell when it landed. I called BS. Then I flew on it from Singapore to Hong Kong. I was upstairs in First Class and I could not tell when we touched down. No shit. I guess the wings absorb all the energy...DOH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEVIL Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Biggest comm. aircraft sure, couldn't feel it land? thats cool. The 747 is still one of the most beautiful meat haulers around, maybe second only to the DC-3, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
