Boeing currently has 22 unfilled orders for 747's, not counting the
747-8.


All of the 747-400 orders are for cargo versions. Boeing has stopped
production of passenger versions. There is one BBJ configuration of the 747
on order.

Kevin,
THANK YOU!! This is AWESOME!! I've already seen a couple on there and I
only gandered just a few seconds. THANK YOU to everyone that posted with
informative information!!


Just for grins, would you mind posting any domestic passenger 747
routes?

I'm just curious if anyone is using them within the US for non-cargo
operations.

Thanks!

But that's not what you said the first time... The first time you said:

The 747 is not in production right now, although a new version is coming.


Perhaps you should have been more accurate in your claims the first time.

I quess I should have been more specific...I mean 747 flights within the
CONTINENTAL USA....and I'm everyone one understood what I meant.

I did find a flight on China Airlines between SFO and Miami....whether or
not it has passenger service on that or not or if they will sell me a seat
for that flight I don't know. They're website only shows international
flights. I have emailed several foreign airlines to ask about this due to
Mxsmanic's helpful post.

Lets keep this simple...I DO NOT want to leave the USA...that is why I ask
for help in finding a flight that begins in the USA and ends in the
USA.


I'd look for flights between Asia and the midwest or east coast making
stops in Anchorage or Fairbanks, and book the leg between Alaska and the
lower 48. I presume you're not limiting yourself to US carriers with
whatever is restraining you from leaving the US? If not, look for
extensions of foreign flights from east or west coast points of entry to
internal destinations. E.g., Tokyo - San Francisco - Chicago. (Not that
I know whether that route is flown - just made it up as an example.)

A BBJ is a passenger aircraft, you ****ing nitwit.

You don't fly. You don't know **** about aviation. All you do is set
MSFS to pretend fly from A to B while on autopilot so you can sit in front
of the monitor stroking your joy stick.

you must have misunderstood, I want to buy a seat in a 747. I really doubt
that I'd be able to buy a seat in the 747-BBJ that was mentioned by a fella
that you cursed out in a such a mature fashion. If what this this fella
stated made you flip out so bad that must use this type of language..I
really pray that really don't fly aircraft in US skies. If so, you're an
accident waiting to happen, if you haven't already.

Ted;
Your new here so I'll give you a hint. Spend a little time reading what MX
has posted over the last several months and you'll see why Benjamin reacted
the way he did. MX has been posting nonsense and acting as a source of
information that he has no knowledge of and when it's pointed out that he is
speaking nonsense he goes off on the posters if a variety of ridicules ways.
He was not slapped down the first 10 or 20 or even 30 times he did it but
eventually we got tired of his stupidity and started acting out against it.
Your post is a perfect example of why the group felt they needed to. You
came in here to ask a question and MX posted a response. You would have no
way of knowing he was clueless and you might have left believing him. In
this case it would not have made much difference as your question would not
have effected anyone ability to fly safely but on other occasions and other
questions he has responded in a way that could endanger others lives. The
group here will simply not allow that to happen.

Hope this helps,

John
