The last of a dynasty


its not a great photo but this is the newest Korean Air B747-8i and the last one they had on order. it was delivered in early August 2017 without fanfare but is in fact the last passenger 747 to be built. the B747 has spanned my life time and if I am honest is my favourite aircraft, a design classic of all time. its very sad to think of it not being in production any more and I suppose therefore is only a few years away from dissapearing from the skies.
