A Boeing 747-8 Freighter painted in the livery of the Seattle Seahawks took to the skies over Washington in advance of the team’s victory on Sunday Super Bowl XLVIII.
The airplane’s flight pattern took it past Seattle landmarks including the Space Needle and CenturyLink Field, home of the Seahawks.
The 747-8 then flew over Eastern Washington in a pattern that formed the number 12, a salute to all Seahawks’ fans.
“You may remember that we drew a ‘747’ over the continental United States during 747-8 certification flight testing,” said Boeing 747 chief pilot Mark Feuerstein #
“Although the 12 is smaller in scale, the pride and sense of community behind it make it feel just as big for the entire Boeing team.”
Boeing is a sponsor of the Seattle Seahawks and Irhal would like to congratulate the team on their victory
