The 747’s 56th Anniversary Group Flight!
Welcome to the 747’s 56th Anniversary Group Flight!
When the first 747 departed on its maiden flight out of Boeing’s Everett, Washington plant on February 9, 1969, few could have imagined it would become the legend of aviation that it is today.
Today’s group flight honors the contributions that the 747 has made to aviation history, while also celebrating the future of aviation in the United States and beyond!
