The 747 Did Not Change Travel, It Merely Enhanced It.
The 747 Claim Is Low Cost Fares & Large Volumes, But The 707 Took Air Travel Out Of The Dark Ages So To Speak & Introduced The Jet Age.
Remember The 707 Was Twice As Fast & Carried Twice As Many Passengers Than Propliners.
And Without The 707, We Wouldn't Have The 747 As The 747 Is Based On The 707.
Brilliant Alias & DC-8-55 Make A Good Points Too.
