Shanghai Pudong - ZSPD, China

Notes:

[1600px] A throwback to what felt like an eternity ago, when the Queen of the Skies was still relatively easy to spot. Pictured here in much happier times was 23 year old D-ABVT, docked at her final stopping position at Shanghai Pudong Terminal 2, after a 10-hour trek from Frankfurt as LH732. This particular aircraft has since been withdrawn from service after the COVID-19 outbreak, and is currently (as of Dec 2020) stored in Tarbes, France. Whether she would make it out of storage in the post COVID landscape is largely unknown, as is the case with many 747s around the world.
