1969

In 1969 the first B747 flew...in 1969 men walked on the moon...in 1969 the first Concorde flew...in 1969 I completed my RAF Flying Scholarship and got my PPL.
15,800 hours on the B747 and 1,690 Atlantic crossings later...
In 2020 the B747 is on the scrap heap and so am I...that's progress I suppose.
Happy landings everyone.
