The Boeing 747 Dreamlifter (formerly Large Cargo Freighter or LCF) is a wide-body cargo
aircraft. Cargo is placed in the aircraft by the world's longest cargo loader. It is an extensively
modified Boeing 747-400 that is used exclusively for transporting Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft
components to Boeing's assembly plants from suppliers around the world. The Boeing 747 is an
American wide-body commercial jet airliner and cargo aircraft, often referred to by its original
nickname, Jumbo Jet, or Queen of the Skies. Its distinctive "hump" upper deck along the forward
part of the aircraft makes it among the world's most recognizable aircraft, and it was the first widebody produced. Manufactured by Boeings Commercial in the United States, the original version
of the 747 had 250% greater capacity than the Boeing 707, one of the common large commercial
aircraft of the 1960s. First flown commercially in 1970, the 747 held the passenger capacity record
for 37 years.

The A340-600 is the largest-capacity member of the A340 Family. With an overall length of
75.36 meters, it has a seating capacity for around 350 passengers or 475 in high-density seating
while keeping the Airbus standard 18-inch wide seat comfort in economy class. In the secondary
market, the A340-600 is ideal for replacing competing aircraft, with 20 per cent lower fuel per trip and
a more modern cabin with the latest technology. This super-stretch aircraft provides operators with
unrivalled standards of space, comfort and amenities in each class of service, along with twice the
under floor cargo capacity of comparable airliners.
