It has got legends of aircraft history like The Concorde, Airforce One, First B747 etc. The current post consists of the aircraft which are found outside the Museum of flight. Details of each aircraft will be given in separate posts


Main Entrance of Museum of Flight


Aircrafts at the entrance seem to be welcoming you to visit the museum.

Fiat G.91 Pan

The Fiat G.91 was designed in the mid-1950s to meet NATO requirements for a tactical fighter and ground support aircraft. Several features, especially the swept wings, tail, and fuselage structure, bear a great resemblance to the North American F-86 Sabre jet fighter. As recently as the mid-1990s, G.91s were still flying with the air forces of Italy and other European countries.

Boeing 787 : A dream come true


Dreamliner

Its a plane which will make you feel of your dreams coming true. Inside the flight one will not be able to hear the outside noise. The mood lighting inside the cabin makes you feel comfortable to sleep & also helps you avert jet lag. Its aerodynamically very efficient & glider type plane. It is fuel efficient.  There are 3 variants of 787(-8,-9,-10) out of which only -8 & -9 are currently operational.
The major differences between all the models is fuselage length, capacity and range. The more the capacity & length the less is the range.
