Why do the years have to end, I never got to fly on one! It's my dream😢...
Am I the only one who thinks the Fall of the 747 is super sad?

@MrSilverWolf My condolences.
@MrSilverWolf oh ok, it's not bad news, it's just most of what I learn about aviation is like on YouTube and Google
@Graingy the prices, I speak from experience, 6 months of searching for a plane that wasn’t overpriced, the wallet has been beaten up
@MrSilverWolf wanna go halvsies on the cheapest 747 I could find? crazy where googling can get you
They also had a couple of blackhawks on there, but they suspiciously say you have to call for a price…
@MrSilverWolf Those emojis seem pained.
Like they’re from experience.
How’s your wallet, MrSilverWolf?
@RepublicofWrightIsles hate to be the bearer of bad news that’s for a lawn decoration Mig-21, $150,000 in the aircraft market today will get you one of these and even better is it won’t even be the newest one either, 3 million? You could get one of these (fun fact that’s just the purchase price only 😃 not fuel expenses or maintenance, total that in thats $300,000 a year, on top of the 3 mil purchase price, and thats only for that plane let alone a mig 😃)
@Graingy I agree with your statement, I was just following what people said.
@RepublicofWrightIsles We are not related.
Anyways, the plane is over 50 years old. And I doubt one in good flying condition would go as low as $3 million USD. They’re still large, powerful aircraft, if dated.
@Randomplayer a 747 isn't just a cargo, it is a passenger, just bc it's big doesn't mean it's cargo!
@RepublicofWrightIsles no? I don’t fly on cargo planes
@Kangy are you a version of graingy
Yes
@Randomplayer did you fly on one? If so then it is overrated
It’s a cool plane but it’s pretty overated
@RepublicofWrightIsles yeah, and you can get a F-4 for 1 million, and a A-4 for 500,000, that’s less than a 747
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 dude a Mig-21 is frigging $150,000
@RepublicofWrightIsles yeah, pretty much the same on my end, I want to own some sort of military jet when I grow up
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 that's cheap..... when I grow up I just might be able to get this
@RepublicofWrightIsles at most it would be around 3-4 million (that’s why I said if you have money)
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I don't have a billion dollars to put into a 747
@RepublicofWrightIsles there is a possibility that people will be able to buy them, like how you can buy DC-3s and DC-6s and DC-10s
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 wdym I can buy a 747!?!
You might be able to buy one (if you have money)
