EVERETT, Wash., June 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Boeing began fuselage assembly of the first 747-8 Intercontinental at the factory in Everett, Wash.

The panels are part of section 41, the area of the fuselage that houses the flight deck on the upper deck and the forward passenger cabin on the main deck, an area that most airlines typically configure with first class seating.
The 747-8 Intercontinental is the new, high-capacity 747 that offers airlines the lowest operating costs and best economics of any large passenger airplane while providing enhanced environmental performance.
