Boeing's BIG PLAN 747's twin- engines will change the aviation industry! Here's why
Since its introduction on January 19 70 with PanAm, the Boeing 7 4 7 has stood as an icon of aviation history. During that period, when people spoke about the jumbo jet, they could have been referring to any of the first three wide bodies, the McDonnell Douglas DC-10, the Lockheed L-10 11 Tristar or, of course, the Boeing 7 4 7. And the Queen of the Skies was the winner in that wide-body race since it had the longest production run of all of them. As the first widebody aircraft from Boeing, its four-engine configuration represented the pinnacle of power at the time.

However, technological advancements have now paved the way for the possibility of a twin-engine 7 4 7, a concept once deemed improbable. So, which are the engines that are powerful enough to be able to carry this enormous aircraft with just a twin-engine figuration? And is there any chance that they will bring the Queen back to production? We’ll find out in this video.
But before discussing the possible engines, we need to take a brief look at the history of this magnificent aircraft.

The genesis of the Boeing 7 4 7 traces back to the commercial air travel boom of the 19 60’s. With the success of aircraft like the Boeing 7 O 7 and the McDonnell Douglas DC8, it became apparent that airlines required a larger, more efficient aircraft to meet growing demands. Thus, the concept of the Boeing 7 4 7 was born, with the ambitious goal of offering transatlantic flights while significantly reducing per-seat costs. In comparison with the 7 O 7 or the DC8, the 7 4 7 lowered per-seat cost by up to 30%, which was such great news for passengers because back in the early days of the commercial jet age, traveling by jetliners was luxurious
