United gave its final 747 aircraft a 1970s sendoff

United flight 747 made history Tuesday morning.  The flight from San Francisco to Honolulu was the final flight on the airline's last Boeing 747 aircraft. It all came fill circle after the first commercial flight departed on the same route on June 23, 1970 — 47 years ago. SEE ALSO: Today marks the last flight 666 bound for HEL on Friday the 13th.
