The Boeing 747 is one of the largest commercial airliners in the world.
The aircraft type has been in development for more than five decades .
Several examples still fly today in passenger and cargo operations.
The 747-100 , the first variant of the aircraft type, was ordered by Pan Am in 1966 .
Two examples of this variant are aircraft operated by the US Air Force under the designation of VC-25A.
The 747 -8 will be the successor to the VC-25A , with special modifications for presidential transport.
Boeing announced in 2016 that the 747 program would end due to poor demand for the aircraft.
The last 747 was delivered to Atlas Air in early 2023 , marking 55 years of production.
