Boeing 747 documentary by the Smithsonian, 2014. From inception to present day with some great stories of its testing and influence on world travel. They say at any given time, there are 100,000 people, around the world, in the air, on 747's!! The new 08 model has reached speeds of 8 mph shy of supersonic! This short clip is from Boeing but you can watch the Smithsonian program online, if you are a plane guy, you will like it.
