I would say the Boeing 747. It has been going for a longer time with more variants and versions and used by more operator (Passenger, freight BBJ). Sad to see it going. 😢
Boeing 747 well duh
747 but a380 is still nice
love both equally <3
A380 by a mile.
Yo prefiero el A380, es más nuevo pero diría que el B747 lo conoce todo el mundo.
There is and will only ever be one QUEEN of the skies and that will always be the B747.
