Hi guys,

it's been a while since I've been on here. However we just got a story on EngineeringBecause.com that some of you might really like. We recently interviewed Adedeji King for our site.

Adedeji is a Mechanical engineering graduate from UCL. He now works at EDF as a nuclear engineer. He's also had fantastic internships at companies like Exxon Mobil and BP. He's shared with us some of his experiences and given you guys some free advice regarding how to approach companies like EDF for jobs.

Let me know what you all think!

Kind regards,

Shaf

Boeing 747 Super Structures Construction -

Posted: 08 Nov 2011 05:25 AM PST

The Boeing 747, sometimes nicknamed the "Jumbo Jet" is among the world's most recognizable aircraft and was the first wide-body commercial airliner ever produced.

Manufactured by Boeing's Commercial Airplane unit in the United States, the original version of the 747 was two and a half times the size of the Boeing 707, one of the common large commercial aircraft of the 1960s.

The aircraft's wingspan is actually longer than the length of the Wright Brothers' first flight. First flown commercially in 1970, it held the passenger capacity record for 37 years, until it was surpassed by the Airbus A380.
