Ship 6301 took its first flight on April 29, 1988. As Boeing completed its test flight of the first 747-400, the second chapter of the 747 story began. Thirty years later, we celebrate this anniversary at the Delta 747 Experience, where you can explore the actual plane that made this historic flight.
