When I think of the 50 objects that have defined my life, the 747 is always there. I have spent more time on these planes than any other – and they have generally been a joy to ride. Joe Sutter, often described as the “Father of the Boeing 747,” and who featured in a fascinating TV documentary I watched recently, has just died. Thank you Joe.
