The Boeing 747-400 is a long-range wide-bodied aircraft that first saw service with Northwest Airlines in the early 1990's. It is powered by four Pratt & Whitney PW4062 engines with a thrust rating of 60,000 lbs of thrust per engine. Northwest Airlines used the -400?s for International Routes and had overwhelming success flying them to the Orient. Northwest flew them on revenue passenger service until the merger in 2009 with Delta Airlines who continues to fly them.
