03/07/2020 : Aircraft manufacturer Boeing stops making its type 747 aircraft?
In two years, the last type 747-8 aircraft would roll off the production line in Seattle. The plane made its debut in 1970, and caused a sensation because it could carry far more passengers or cargo than its predecessors. The aircraft was mainly recognizable by the second deck in the front part of the aircraft, in which the most luxurious versions even had a spiral staircase between the floors. Type 747 cargo planes were known for having the nose that could be flipped open to load and unload goods.

The jumbo jet, which is powered by four engines, has lost a lot of ground in popularity to more economical twin-engine models from Boeing and competitor Airbus. The 747 was also not an undivided financial success. The development of the model almost caused the Boeing to go bankrupt. After production levels were severely scaled back in 2016, Boeing recorded an estimated $ 40 million ($ 35 million) loss on each produced. In total, 1571 orders were placed for the device, of which 15 are yet to be executed.
