Iran Air Attempts Unprecedented Boeing 747 Overhaul Amid Sanctions

Keeping its fleet going tends to be a challenging undertaking for Iran Air at the best of times, with the carrier forced to rely on older aircraft due to Western sanctions. This year, the commercial aviation sector in Iran as a whole has been hit hard, with the country having had to come to terms with both military attacks and further sanctions. Iran Air, however, is confident that its sole 747 will soon fly again.
