Boeing 747 - "Queen Of The Skies" USS Arizona Designed and built by NorthThe Boeing 747 made its first flight on February 9, 1969. It was the first aircraft to feature a wide body design and was the first to be called a Jumbo Jet. The 747 features a raised flight deck to allow for conversion to a freighter airplane by installing a front cargo door. This is perhaps the airplanes most iconic feature. The wide body, double aisle design revolutionized air travel. The 747 was 2. 5 times larger than previous jets (like the 707)
