747虽有货机,但更为人所熟知的是客机。不仅有空中皇后的美名,还成为社会文化的一部分,像1972年Albert Hammond的名曲It never rains in Southern California,第一句歌词就是“坐上飞往西部的747”(Got onboard a westernbound 747)。 2023年最后一架747交付,54年...
747虽有货机,但更为人所熟知的是客机。不仅有空中皇后的美名,还成为社会文化的一部分,像1972年Albert Hammond的名曲It never rains in Southern California,第一句歌词就是“坐上飞往西部的747”(Got onboard a westernbound 747)。 2023年最后一架747交付,54年的生产画上句号。可最初的临时工737,至少会生产到203...

This may seem a carefree way to treat passengers and crew on-board, but as a matter of fact the Board of Trade regulations of the time stated that all British vessels over 10,000 tons had to carry 16 lifeboats. The (prescriptive) regulation had become obsolete within a short period of ...
"Luxair plans to operate its new B737-10 to offer passengers a minimum of 30-inch seat pitch. In this configuration, the airline can fly up to 213 passengers on routes stretching 5,740 km (3,100 nautical miles), resulting in more capacity and range to capitalise on growing leisure travel...
the the younger generation have grown up with no knowledge of the world that came before. When Max stumbles upon a group of children descended from the passengers of a crashed Boeing 747, they tell him the story of how they came to be, and their plans to locate the civilization known as...
Delta instead went out and ordered Airbus 321neos. That aircraft could seat as many passengers as the Boeing 757-200 could. It had a slightly shorter range, but Airbus will sort that out with a variant of the Airbus 321 called the XLR and Delta right now is in talks with Boeing about ...
One hundred and eighty-nine passengers and crew died. In March 2019, an Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX crashed while operating a flight between Addis Ababa and Nairobi. The crash killed all 157 people onboard. Subsequently, jurisdictions around the world grounded the plane, and a long-running ...
