The Boeing 747 raises more emotions than maybe any other airliner and is therefore affectionately known as "Jumbo". Its successor the 747-8, which offersinnovation, advanced technology and efficiency, made its first flight on 20 March 2011. As a completely new aircraft development the Boeing 747-8 builds on the positive qualities of the proven Boeing 747 series. The 747-8 is 5.6 meters longer than the previous Boeing 747-400 and has a maximum take-off weight of 442tons. The wings have significantly improved aerodynamics and newly designed wingtips. Additionally the aircraft offers noticeable improvements in efficiency: the Gent GEnx-2B engines consume less fuel (about 20%) and achieve a significantfuel efficiency and CO2 emission per passenger improvement of 15%. Noise emissions are also reduced by 30%. The new Lufthansa "Jumbo" offers seating for a total of 362 passengers and entered regular service in June 2012. Lufthansa will take delivery of 20 Boeing 747-8 by 2015.
