Which aircraft is also known as the 'Jumbo Jet'?
Correct answer: Boeing 747
"REDSQUAW"
I grew up in Lakewood right next to Boeing way back when it was called McDonnell Douglas.. there was a bunch of wild rabbits that used to hop around the hangers there

"REDSQUAW", technically Boeing merged with McDonnell Douglas bought them out I guess you could say. I work for Boeing. :)

"REDSQUAW", i used to work at an airport and they had a guy drive round with loud hunter bird type sound blaring over the speakers to scare the wildlife away. what a weird job - animal scarer

My father worked for Boeing in the 60's-70's. He was a design engineer that helped design the 747.
Concorde SST
Magnificent airliner. So much nicer to look at than the ugly Airbus A380, regardless of the fact that it carries less passengers, etc.
Concorde and the 747 are my favourites, aesthetically speaking.

Setting my difficulty level to Hard was a mistake.

737 was known as jumbo before it was replaced by the 747

Wasn’t there a 747 back in the 1960s that was called Fat Albert?

Concorde SST, The old Constellation was a gorgeous looking aircraft, beautiful lines.

lladdaidi, That's to prevent bird or animal strike....animal ingested into aircraft engine...catastrophic
Liisse
Lovely old plane...been across the Pacific and back in one.Spacious. Don't feel claustrophobic like the new planes today. Sardine tins, for bums on seats.

If you get the chance, check out the QANTAS museum in Longreach Queensland, Australia. they have a large number if aircraft you can look at and several you go inside of. Also one of a handful of places you can walk on the wing of 747.

Despite having one almost in my backyard, I got this wrong. Guess it was because I also had a 707 almost in my backyard as well. 707 was first to have jet engines.

Until Airbus 380A, with a double - double decker, double decker all along the airplane.

I grew up near LAX Airport. When the 747 first flew by it looked so spooky weird because it appeared to be floating still in the air when approaching to land. This optical illusion was because it was soooo much bigger than all other jetliners.
supershuck
I traveled on one. Like a plush hotel lobby with room service.

I worked for Boeing for 20 years on the ISS Program. Couldn't get this one wrong!
