From Wikipedia:

The Boeing 747, sometimes nicknamed the "Jumbo Jet",[5][6] is among the world's most recognizable aircraft,[7] and was the first wide-body commercial airliner ever produced. Manufactured by Boeing's Commercial Airplane unit in the United States, the original version of the 747 was two and a half times the size of the Boeing 707,[8] one of the common large commercial aircraft of the 1960s. The aircraft's wingspan is actually longer than the length of the Wright Brothers' first flight. First flown commercially in 1970, it held the passenger capacity record for 37 years, until it was surpassed by the Airbus A380.

the A380 will never look as beautiful or majestic as the 747. the 747 will always be the queen of the skies to me.

The A380 is such an ugly plane, sorry to say. I hope the 747-8 really dominates.

quiet huge plane with such a huge safely record the Boeing-747 jumbo jet. Yes, A380 is the giant in the sky, but 747 will always be the Queen of the Skies. May both provide safer air travel.

Airbus is to much technologic , Boeing offers a more realistic flying expirience , i can say because ive flown a A320 and a B-737 and clearly Boeing wins in enerything
