Does the Boeing 747 Have a Future?
Does the Boeing 747 Have a Future?

The issue doesn't seem to be that the 747 has gotten stale in its old age (in fact, Boeing's latest version features new engines, a redesigned wing, a fuselage stretch, and advanced avionics; some might argue that Boeing spent WAY too much capital on a plane with so few orders). Rather, the problem seems to be that other planes have gotten so much better. This reminds me of that 80′s darling, the Pontiac Fiero, and its cool uncle, the Chevrolet Corvette.
GM and Pontiac built the Fiero from 1984-1988. A mid-engined, two-seater sports car with sharp (for the 80′s) looks, the Fiero did a lot of things well that the Corvette also was known for. Although not officially acknowledged by GM as a reason for ending the program, enthusiasts maintain that GM killed the Fiero because it was encroaching on the performance envelope of the 'Vette, at lower acquisition and operating costs. Sound familiar? If you've ever flown on a Boeing 777, it should.
