Boeing 747-400
The Boeing 747-400 is an American wide-body, four-engined jet airliner and the best-selling variant of the B747 family. It is one of the most recognisable passenger aircraft with its distinctive hump atop the forward fuselage. The -400 flew for the first time on April 29, 1988, and made its service debut on February 9, 1989, with Northwest Airlines. Produced in several versions; -400 (passenger), -400F (freighter), -400M (combi), a high-density seating for short-haul Japanese domestic flights (-400D), -400ER (extended range) and -400ERF (extended range freighter). Production of the B747-400 ended in 2002, with 694 airframes built.
The -400 incorporates technological and structural improvements over previous variants. A new glass cockpit removed the need for a flight engineer. The optional stretched upper deck of 747-300 became standard. Lengthen, lighter wings and except the -400D, 1.8 m (6 ft) canted winglets. More fuel-efficient Pratt & Whitney PW4000, General Electric CF6 or Rolls-Royce RB211 high-bypass turbofan engines and increased fuel capacity. Carbon brakes instead of steel and improved fuselage to wing fairings. It can seat up to 416 passengers in a typical three-class layout, 524 in a two-classes, or 660 passengers in a high–density single class (747-400D) and a maximum range of up to 14,200 km (8,823 mi) with maximum payload, depending on the version.
