On CNN: the last Boeing 747

 

It was a real honour to be able to write the Boeing 747 farewell chronicle for CNN.

First of all, I must say, this was not an easy story to write. I started working on it in the summer of 2022, when the preparations for the delivery of the last Jumbo jet to Atlas Air were taking shape. Since then, multiple date changes, new information coming up and changes in the angle of the story had to be amended quite a few times.

But, finally, I was able to pay my respects to the Queen (of the Skies)!

Here it is!
