Best wishes to Lufthansa but couldn't they have "splashed up" the first aircraft a little? You spend a couple of hundred millions bucks you out to get a little bit more of a bang out of a first edition.

I wonder why they stayed with gray on the bottom rather than the beige/brown they got on their A380 like the one that shows up on here every now and then.

umm. they didn't put beige/brown as far as i know. i think the picture looks like that because of the way the sun is reflecting on it.

WOW...real original. Just kidding. I agree that they should've explored some new flashy designs to show it off. Oh well.

Its probably the camera angle, but that plane looks insanely long.

any idea who this "private customer" is? As if it's not impressive enough to afford this plane, but also to be at the front of the line...

Since the B747's "hump" is now about 1/3 to 1/2 the length of the fuselage, I wonder if Boeing would ever consider extending it all the way and make it a true double-decker, a la Airbus A380?
