Flying Boeing’s Largest Aircraft - 747-8F Cargo SilkWay West
Hello from Baku, Azerbaijan. This week, I am flying on Silkway West B747-8 Freighter from Baku to Amsterdam. The B747-8F is fully loaded with 120 tons of cargo with takeoff weight of over 400 tons!
Before the flight, Samir from Silk Way Group gave me a special tour of the modern cargo facility in Baku, which features an automated cargo crane system and a dedicated large cold storage warehouse. Silk Way West currently operates 12 B747 Freighters in the fleet. The ramp at Baku was buzzing with activity.

How Airlines Fly Cars, Sharks And Other Goods Under Passengers
When the pandemic hit in early 2020, air travel came to a near halt. By April, more than half of the world’s passenger jets were parked. Those 16,000 planes also carry roughly half of the world’s air cargo, over 52 million metric tons of goods every year.
Cargo is typically only a small percentage of airline revenue, but it became a lifeline for Alaska Airlines, American, United and others as passengers stayed home under lockdown orders.
The air cargo market boomed and prices soared as consumers turned to e-commerce giants like Amazon to shop from home. Amazon sales surged 44% in Q1 2021 compared to 2020. Cargo’s share in total airline revenue almost quadrupled between 2016 and 2021.
In response, the world’s two biggest plane manufacturers started making cargo-only versions of their newe...

Hello from Baku,

Before the flight, Samir from Silk Way Group gave me a special tour of the modern cargo facility in Baku, which features an automated cargo crane system and a dedicated large cold storage warehouse. Silk Way West currently operates 12 B747 Freighters in the fleet. The ramp at Baku was buzzing with activity.
Inside the Boeing 747, I met with Captain Rasim, who showed me the advanced loading of cargo inside B747-8F. I was the only passenger onboard this cargo plane. We departed Baku over the city, then headed towards the Caucasus, Georgia, across the Black Sea towards Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany, and our final destination Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
It was a really unusual first-class experience on the Boeing 747 cargo flight. Captain Rasim served me a meal including Caspian Sea beluga caviar! After food, there is a dedicated rest cabin to sleep. During my journey, I also discovered the tough life of a cargo pilot who spent most of the time flying through restrictions during the pandemic to deliver cargo. They face long periods of loneliness away from their family due to work.
The weather in Amsterdam was raining with low visibility. The weather radar was full of colours. Watch how the pilot fully concentrated on the landing there.

With the ability to transport an Army brigade of 3,000 troops and 7 and a half thousand tons of equipment within ninety-six hours, this colossal aircraft design would have put America’s army right on the world front door.
And it couldn’t be built fast enough, with the pentagon ramping up design to deliver a fleet of aircraft by the end of 2020.
Its 500-foot wingspan would make it the largest military transport in the world, regulating the Antonov 225 to look like a regional jet, but the accountants at Boeing thought why stop there? They came up with grand plans to change commercial and cargo aviation as well.
But it never happened, and the year 2020 came and went without the ULTRA plane gracing our skies.
This is the story of the Pelican Super Transport!
Design work on the Pelican Super Transport plane began at Boeing Phantom Works in 2000.
The brief from the United States military was fairly straightforward: design a plane large enough to transport thousands of troops, weapons, military equipment and other needed provisions during wartime or at the height of battle as fast as possible.
By way of comparison, one performance standard that the military demanded would be the ability for the aircraft to deploy an Army brigade of 3,000 troops and 7,300 tons of equipment within ninety-six hours, or four days max. compared to the 91 to 183 days, or three to six months, that would normally be required to move those numbers of troops and equipment.
Interestingly, the Boeing Phantom Works team considered at least three different possibilities:
the first was a large blimp or dirigible airship, the second a smaller but wider airship that created dynamic lift while in forwarding motion, and the third a larger airship with wings spanning 700 feet or 213 metres that would fly at low altitude. They were all rejected. Also rejected by the team at Boeing were ideas for a fast ocean-going ship and a sea-based vehicle with ground effect.
Boeing Phantom Works then settled on a ground effect land-based aircraft that would form the basis for the giant Pelican super transporter.
It’s important to note that the Pelican was not designed for contact with bodies of water, which meant it could not take off or land on any body of water.
Instead, it was designed to be lighter and more aerodynamic than other large planes of the seaplane variety.
This is because the Pelican was able to exit ground effect to climb a few thousand feet and thus enter into its descent like other aircraft.
The Pelican’s wingspan therefore allowed the aircraft to fly beyond ground effect.
This ‘beyond ground effect’ capability of the Pelican was unlike other massive ground effect aircraft such as the Soviet Union’s Ekranoplan or Caspian Sea Monster, which could only fly at low altitudes in order to maintain constant ground effect due to its relatively narrow wingspan.
The Pelican would spend most of its time flying at between 20 feet and 50 feet, or roughly six to 15 metres, above the surface, although it would have the all-important ability to cruise at up to 20,000 feet or 6.100 metres in order to avoid terrain and lower-altitude inclement weather.
These specs included:
1. a 500-foot or 152 metre wingspan
2. a wing area of over one acre, which is 43,560 square feet or 4,047 square metres
3. A maximum take-off weight or MTOW of 6 million pounds or 2.7 million kilograms, or 2,700 metric tons. That is equal in weight to 7-and-a-half fully-loaded Boeing 747s!
4. a payload of 1,270 tons of cargo
6. The ability to move the equivalent of 17 M-1 Abrams tanks
This ground effect factor was a big selling point for the military. As Deborah Beron-Rawdon, the head of strategic development within Boeing Phantom Works, said at the time: “The Pelican is land-based, and that's where we are garnering most military support. It seems to have gained a lot of traction recently within the Defense Department. Whether or not there is a civil interest, our focus is on a military version for strategic deployment.”
By the way, the Pelican was conceptually very simple: it was a massive, conventional wing-body-tail cantilevered monoplane, whose payload would be carried in standard sea-going containers inside the enormous, unpressurised fuselage.
The cavernous hull would be able to fit containers two-deep on the main deck, which would also be able to carry outsized vehicles, such as the military's large battle tanks.
An upper deck could be used to store a further single layer of containers. In short, the Pelican was to be a glorified hulk of a cargo plane.

When the pandemic hit in early 2020, air travel came to a near halt. By April, more than half of the world’s passenger jets were parked. Those 16,000 planes also carry roughly half of the world’s air cargo, over 52 million metric tons of goods every year.
Cargo is typically only a small percentage of airline revenue, but it became a lifeline for
Alaska Airlines, American, United and others as passengers stayed home under lockdown orders.
The air cargo market boomed and prices soared as consumers turned to e-commerce giants like Amazon to shop from home. Amazon sales surged 44% in Q1 2021 compared to 2020. Cargo’s share in total airline revenue almost quadrupled between 2016 and 2021.
In response, the world’s two biggest plane manufacturers started making cargo-only versions of their newest wide-body aircraft: the Boeing 777x and the Airbus A350. Boeing’s freight plane sales hit a new record in 2021 and expects an 80% increase in the global freighter fleet through 2041.
But as the global economy slows, is this growth in air cargo sustainable? Watch the video to learn more.
