Yeah, in 2009 at Avalon Airport, from 24th March until 29th March.

Are they having the Avalon airshow again? I would go just to be that close to a 747 :)

??? What kind of airshow isn't open to the public? Who is it held for then?

@serratealldemoncrats
The Avalon airshow is held over a few days, where there is one day open to trade visitors only (From industry & military), and the others open to the general public. I went to both.

I agree - I didn't put the song on, they were playing it at the flight line as the 747 was throttling up. I gotta tell you though, that was bloody loud - we were only about 50 or so meters away! (With no hearing protection...)

@flyboy172r Was that a -400? I'm thinking GE-CF6 engines. The DC-10,MD,11 and 767 used a varrent based on the CF6.
But I still think the 747 is plenty big enough regardless of the what some might say of the A380 or any other future Super Jumbo.
The 747-8 is pretty awsome .

Interesting questions!
I did some reaserch on this one, I'm guessing this is probably one of 12 747-47UF, one of the Freighter offshots of the -400 series. You have a choice of 3 engines, RR RB211, PW4062 or as you mentioned a CF6-8.
