Is it just me or is there something wrong with that 747. It looks about 50 rows too short.

What was the budget cut? He took off in a 747 to go on an outing? Not like he took a bus to where he was going to save some money in the budget!

It's a 747SP.
They were built like that, with shorter fuselages and shorter second floors, to improve speed and fuel consumption, from what I know.

Cool shots cloud9flyer! 8)
Cheers  ;)
