In this episode, Cargo Facts Editor Jeff Lee and Associate Editors Andrew Crider and Robert Luke discuss the rollout of the final 747 at the Boeing assembly line in Everett, Wash. More than twenty operators of older 747Fs have yet to order the next generation of large-widebody freighter, representing a significant opportunity for those in the competition to offer 747 replacements.
Meanwhile, as Cargo Facts reported this week, Airbus is making an enhancement to its candidate in the large-widebody race.
Tune in for a discussion of these topics and more for the week ended Dec. 9, 2022.
