Photo Comment

The 747SP was quite difficult to photograph attractively.You can see the simplified flaps of the SP in this shot. The relatively oversized wing could get it up to 43,000 feet, higher than most in the mid-seventies. Read the account of this 747SP, Clipper Constitution's inaugural to HNL on the 747SP site
