I take it you mean the Boeing 747 classic. I can't imagine there are a whole lot of B47's flying around at the moment, or have been since the 60's. Although maybe the USAF are re-activating a few for Afghanistan ;)

I believe IAC have been recruiting pilots for Korean Airlines and China Airlines in the past.
KAL crew bases was anywhere in the US they were flying.
CAL was Anchorage and Luxenbourg.

This is from memeory only and a few years old. Could be other companies and bases now...

bu,
I imagine that they're working on behalf of either Air Atlanta or Kabo Air, both of which are taking on extra Classics for the forthcoming Hajj starting January next year.
ElNino,
the Classic 747 is any 747 in the series 100/200/300. There are many, many still flying, including (for the moment) the 5 or so I fly at Virgin Atlantic.

Sorry, I was being pedantic. The B47 I refer to is the Boeing B47 bomber (c.1950 vintage jet bomber, predecessor to the B52). I know what a 747 classic is, I've just never seen them before referred to as a B47.
