The Boeing 747 is the icon of the world aviation, with its 4 engines and its second floor make it recognized wherever you go.
Nicknamed "Jumbo", in 1970 it was the first wide-body aircraft built in the world, that is, it was the first double-aisle airplane.
It has a maximum capacity of about 600 people. The cargo version was able to load about 180,000 kg. And a modified version was able to transport the space shuttle over the fuselage.
The Jumbo gets its power from 4 turbofan engines Pratt & Whitney with high bypass ratio. Once again a pioneer in his time. It also had the largest comfort and entertainment system on board with 170 miles of cable inside its walls.
This is quite interesting.
