One by one, the Jumbos disappear from the sky. Qantas withdrew its Boeing 747s from service at the end of March. A few days after the Australians, the Dutch KLM also stopped its passenger and station wagon 747s. Although the company only planned to withdraw the type next year, due to the epidemic, the retirement of the Jumbos was brought forward. In the case of goods transport, however, it seems that the Queen of the Sky will remain in service for a long time to come. The series continues, new Jumbo secrets are coming from Captain Zsolt Szüle. Why does it often take 50 minutes at Chicago's O'Hare airport for the plane to park at its stand after landing? What should you prepare for on a trip to Hong Kong or a transatlantic trip? What oddities does the European pilot experience in Asian and American communication? How long does it take to prepare a 450 ton airplane for take off? What are the dangers of flying over the Himalayas? We also talked about this with Zsolt Szüle while sitting on the wing of the Yak-40 exhibited in the Aeropark.
