This week, I'm featuring a Northwest Airlines 747. I'm not exactly sure if this is a -100 or -200 series, but Northwest did have about three times more 747-200s in their fleet in total. Divided into three classes, it featured 18 sleeper seats in First Class, 48 Executive class seats, and 334 coach seats.

Northwest was one of only two passenger airlines in the United States to fly the Boeing 747-400, with the only other one being United Airlines.
