I have been told that posting airplane tracks is frowned upon here.

Long live the QUEEN of the skies!
Sad that the 747 will no longer be produced, but at least they’ll be flying, at least in cargo capacity for many years to come.

That's awesome. Been my favorite plane ever since I was a kid. My uncle worked at Boeing for many years, so I was able to see a few of them up close growing up.

Still never flown on one though

Looks like it also did a 500' flyover of the Boeing factory on its way out.

I've always been amazed at how small the airport (Paine Field) is where Boeings are produced. It's literally a regional airport size with medium sized runways and taxiways. It always looks overcrowded.

Fun fact, the airport/Boeing has the largest and 6th largest buildings in the world in terms of volume.

Looks bumpy with the elevations and airspeed, but really cool.

Probably hit 747 but didn’t register on the flight aware or they were trying to get there

I honestly thought they quit producing them 10-20 years ago
