Marking the retirement of the Boeing 747 from El Al service, this last flight has almost completed a “Sky Painting”

Share

After 48 years of dedicated service, El Al is operating its final Boeing 747 service. About two hours into flight LY1747 from Rome Fiumicino, Italy to Tel Aviv, Israel the “Queen of the Skies” will descend to flightlevel 10,000 and draw a special tribute to the 747 in the sky southwest of Cyprus.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
