Boeing 707 Makes First Flight - Take Two
SEATTLE, Dec. 20, 2007 -- Fifty years ago today, the 707 jetliner conducted its first flight. This photo was taken over Puget Sound in Washington State on the airplane's second flight, after unpredictable weather ended the first flight after just seven minutes. The skies cleared later in the day, and the crew took the 707 for a 71-minute second flight.
