Last week Boeing showed pictures of the almost complete new Jumbo version, the Boeing 747-8F freighter on its Blog by Randy Tinseth, vice president for marketing for Boeing Commercial Airplanes in Seattle. The first airframe is roughly 80 % finished and should be rolled out in October and take first flight in the fourth quarter of 2009. The aircraft has been powered on and is "alive". I must admit it really looks great. I will write an article on this future Boeing 747 variant shortly.
You can see the aircraft when you click on the following link:
