Tour of the 747 assembly building

Post by curtis cutter »

Had a great tour of the Boeing 747 main assembly building in Everett Washington today. Largest building footprint in the world.

It is amazing to see two 747's and four other full size aircraft nearly completed in one building. My legs are tired.

So much to learn and so little time.
