The Boeing 747-400, the most successful variant of the iconic "Queen of the Skies," revolutionized long-haul commercial aviation by combining unprecedented passenger capacity with advanced two-pilot operations. First flown on June 27, 1988, it was a high-wing, four-engine turbofan airliner capable of carrying up to 660 passengers or serving as a dedicated freighter. With a wingspan of 211 feet 5 inches including distinctive winglets and a maximum range of 8,355 miles, the aircraft dominated intercontinental routes for decades. Boeing manufactured exactly 694 aircraft between 1988 and 2009 at its Everett, Washington facility.
