Answer to my fellow German: Maybe it´s the visit of John Paul II.? But you must concern it is a very elegant design.

Good times of Alitalia in Galeão..!

The only time I was on a 747 was this one and I can't believe I see it again. I'm an air traffic controller now but the 47 always gets me excited

The background helps highlight what a great looking plane this is. also the vehicles & people gathered around along with the fabulous colour makes this a great shot. definitely top class.

Being italian, it makes me truly sad to see such impressive shots at a time when it is certain Alitalia is done. A disgrace to the nation, we have lost our national airline because of the state's terrible administration. Decades of faithful service end in shame. ;'(

Great picture, showing the modern and spacious Galeao Airport. In the background, we see the Penha Church, on top of a hill, illuminated, just above the 747 main deck second door. Rio is my hometown.

What a fantastic shot of a classic airliner in a timeless paint scheme.

Always big birds in GIG. By the way, the VW Kombi looks thin in perspective with 47

A visitor from United States posted Thu September 25, 2008:
Why don't airlines today leave the engines as bare metal? It's so classic looking.

What a gorgeous, regal-looking airplane.
