    @wilatemodel say what you want, you couldn’t afford one in 1000 lifetimes. Your life would be more complete if the better part of you didn’t run down the back of your moms throat.

    Looks weird to have a 747 in Nunavut with population of around 30k

    @chendrik this is clearly the freighter, the hump is short. the cargo and passenger versions are different (indeed Lufthansa will be the launch customer of the passenger version) but Boeing also produced the cargo version of this aircraft first.

    This aircraft in particular wasnt intended to be a test aircraft. That is why it has the customer paint.

    Wierd. I thought Lufthansa was going to be the first customer. Why would a test aircraft undergo the paint and branding process ?
