Where Are The World’s 174 Only Remaining Boeing 747-400s?

Most of the world’s remaining Boeing 747-400s now serve as freighters, while the last scheduled passenger flights are in their twilight years.

The most likely cause of the hydraulic issue was damage to the seventh and eighth tires during the taxi.

The airport’s northern runway has now reopened for commercial flights.

That incident marked the second one for the aircraft in two days.

It is unclear exactly when the tire burst, but flight data suggests it may have occurred mid-flight.

The requirements to ensure fuel tank safety stemmed from the TWA Flight 800 accident in 1996.

The Boeing 747-400F eventually flew to Amsterdam, from where it continued flying for the airline. Its next destination was Hong Kong.

After the tail strike, the aircraft was out of service for more than a month in the US.

The aircraft was grounded about 48 hours, but has since returned to service.
