The pictures are pretty sad as the last 747 ever rolls off the line... and nobody is even there. An inglorious end to a most glorious plane.

There were a lot of folks there, just not in this shot. Many a picture and selfies galore. Trust me, a lot of folks wanted to see the last one.

You don't get close to 200,000 pounds of rolling airplane, OSHA wouldn't like it.
