Guest comment Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Looks like Boeing will add some style and comfort to their upcoming 747. Here is a link to several photos. http://news.com.com/2300-1008_3-6151336-1....?tag=ne.gall.pg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KYTOP Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Glad they are upgrading the old lady and not stopping production as rumored a few years ago. I am always amazed as I see one of these planes fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seaboy4hire Posted January 23, 2007 Members Share Posted January 23, 2007 Those are very pretty pictures but it should be noted that the designs have not been fully approved. What people are seeing is more or less a prototype. Although I have to say that if they adopt what is shown it would definately make flying a lot nicer.

AdamSmith Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Just saw that the 787 design team dropped wireless transmission to seatback video, and went to wired. Hope that more shoes will not drop in the form of 787 program setbacks. Boeing's loss of sr exec Alan Mulally to Ford could translate into further and growing difficulties. He is one of those rare senior executives who makes a difference at the product/program level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but with the way Ford has been performing lately it is probably a good move that they snagged Mr. Mulally. Hopefully in the next year or two they can turn around their losses and finally be in the black again. Hugs, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
