It features a stretched fuselage, redesigned wings with raked wingtips, and advanced GEnx-2B67 engines, which provide improved fuel efficiency, lower emissions, and reduced noise compared to earlier 747 models. The aircraft can carry over 460 passengers in a typical three-class configuration and has a range of approximately 14,800 kilometers (8,000 nautical miles). • #aviation #planespotting #avgeek #aviationlovers #747
