Here's to 80 years of moving people forward in life. To mark this milestone anniversary, we're introducing a limited-edition model of our Boeing B747-8F aircraft, dressed in the classic yet iconic “lettuce leaf sandwich” livery – a nod to Cathay Pacific’s aviation heritage.
Description
Crafted with precision and painted to the finest detail, this collectable replica embodies our commitment to excellence while honouring the Boeing B747 series that first graced our fleet in 1979. Affectionately known as the “Queen of the Skies,” the aircraft series has always been a treasured part of our legacy – when flight truly began to flourish and sparked boundless possibilities.
Cathay Pacific proudly became the first airline in Asia to introduce the B747-8F to its fleet, ushering revolutionary technology that set new benchmarks for efficiency. Featuring a high-lift, low-drag wing for enhanced payload and range, a simplified flap system to reduce noise and maintenance costs, and the powerful GEnx-2B67 engine, the B747-8F redefined performance standards.
Today, while this aircraft serves our freighter operations, it remains one of the most advanced commercial aircraft engines in service – continuing its legacy of innovation and excellence
