i have to say the 747-100 kepes gettign under cut  :-[ and under appreciated :-[  it CHANGED air travel for ever and led to the airbus a380! with out the 747 we would not be where we are to day.

Not to be rude or anything, but I would say the 747-100 led to the 747-400/8 series not the A380. I agree with you though. I LOVE the 747-100 it is an amazing aircraft! I saw The City Of Everett prototype 747 last year and it is a beautiful aircraft with an amazing history!
