Just thought I'd post up some recent (august) photos of work. Let me know what you think or wonder...
I am the night shift supervisor at Pacific Aerospace Research & Technology. We do heavy maintenance on many different models of aircraft. Most recently we have been working on Boeing 747s. This is an ex-Qantas 747-400. Now owned by MAX AIR.

These are classic. Dude looking down at the floor scratching his head.. Remind me not to fly in this bird. And the guy with roll of toilet paper and the look on his face...

Thanks for sharing the pics Dan, looks like you guys are completely re-furbing this thing.

Great pics! Some of those shots sort of remind me of that human body exhibit that was going around for a while. The one with the human bodies that have their skin gone so you can see all the internal parts.

So massive! It's hard to believe it can fly

Do they ever let you take them out for a spin?



Oh and that's probably the only time I'll ever see the inside of the First Class cabin.

It's a 1990. This particular aircraft had a major accident while with Qantas. An oxygen bottle exploded in the forward cargo pit. Blew the whole side of the aircraft off. It has been completely repaired to new.
Yes, I am Tow/Taxi qualified. In fact I taxiied this particular plane to the blast fence when we went out to perform high power engine runs. So I was driving it completely by myself under the power of the engines.

This aircraft has since been reassembled and left for Nigeria under the tail number 5N-HMB. I have completed another project (747-200) since MAX AIR left. I am now working on a 747-400 for KABO airlines. It will be complete in februrary.

Glad you guys like it. I'm considering calling in sick today...
