This 747 video features images both beautiful and historic. We shot N93119 which tragically later became notorious as the accident aircraft of TWA Flight 800. There is also N174UA, which landed gear up, nearly brand new, at LAX. There are images also captured aboard the 1000th 747 on its delivery flight to Singapore Airlines, and a cockpit shot of the landing at Kimpo as Asiana takes delivery of its very first 747. Other moments include a Cathay Pacific 747 going past the checkerboard and in the cockpit for landing at now-closed, Kai Tak, and some stunning images of Korean Air and Japan Air Lines (JAL).

Spring Airlines Wants Passengers To Stand

Oh what a world. Trade magazine Flight International is reporting that China's Spring Airlines has asked Airbus if they can develop a solution that will essentially create a "standing" airline seat.

The goal, unsurprisingly, is to increase aircraft capacity on Spring's fleet of Airbus A320s. The motivation, questionably, is that "We want to have it so more people can afford to fly," says Zhang Wuan, as quoted by Flight.

The approach involves something like a bar stool with a belt. Questions remain if such a system can be certificated. I don't believe in censorship but I hope this story is kept from the eyes of US air carriers like United Airlines.
