With 4 turbofan engines the Airbus A380 can fly for 14,800 km. Boeing 747 Dubbed as the original ‘Jumbo Jet’ , Boeing 747 is the world’s first wide-body airliner. Also called ‘Queen of the skies’, more than 1,500 aircraft were built over a span of 50 years. Ilyushin Il-86 Often remembered as ‘USSR's first wide-bodied aircraft’, the Ilyushin Il-86 was built by the Ilyushin design bureau for the Soviet Union. Out of the 100+ airplanes that were built, only 3 remain in service, all with the Russian Air Force. Lockheed L-1011 TriStar Built by Lockheed Corporation, the ‘Tristar’ came into production in the 1970s to compete against Boeing 747 and the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. A total of 250 Tristars were built and only one remains in service. Airbus A310 Often known as the world's first twin-jet wide-body airplane with range long enough for it to be operated on transatlantic flights, Airbus A310 first came into production in 1983. Boeing 777 Commonly referred to as the ‘Triple Seven’, it is the first Boeing aircraft with fly-by-wire controls. First launched in 1995, 777 had become the most-produced Boeing wide-body jet, overtaking the 747. Jump into the cockpit and see if you have what it takes to pilot a Jumbo Jet!
