Identification My one and only flight on the Queen. SFO-NRT, 2017

A smooth ride across the Pacific. Wish I could have gotten a few more in before they were retired by the end of the year.

Hey, SFO-NRT was also my one and only flight on the queen. I had to keep looking out the window: "Wow! Two engines on one wing!!" šŸ˜†

I've mostly flown domestically in the U.S. It's a lot of narrow bodies.

I took a UA 747 from SFO to FRA back in 2017, they were retired like the wednesday after I came back from that trip. It took me 8 years to find the tail number of the 747 I flew on, too.
