DELIVERED: 1500th 747 Aircraft

I know that this is not flight sim related, but since this is my favorite aircraft, I have to share it you.
Boeing has delivered the 1,500th 747 to come off the Everett, Wash. production line to Frankfurt, Germany-based Lufthansa. The airplane is a 747-8 Intercontinental, the newest 747 which entered service with Lufthansa in 2012.
