It has a longer fuselage surpassing the Airbus A340. It is also the heaviest aircraft, commercial or military, manufactured in the United States. On the passenger version of the plane,the 747-8 will feature a new solid-state light-emitting diode (LED) lighting system, which can create moods lighting.This new LED technology provides lower maintenance costs.
