Role
The 747-400 is a long
range high capacity widebody airliner and best
selling model of the 747 family. The 747-400 is a significantly improved
aircraft. Changes include a new, two crew digital flight deck with six
large CRT displays, an increased span wing with winglets (the -400 was
the first airliner to introduce winglets), new engines, re-contoured
wing/fuselage fairing, a new interior, lower basic but increased maximum
takeoff weights, and greater range. The last passenger version of the
747-400 was delivered in April 2005 to China Airlines. Boeing announced
in March 2007 that it had no plans to produce further passenger versions.
