Hi to whom this may concern at Boeing, Manchester Airport, or any airliners that see this petition.

I have created this petition on behalf of the many thousands of aviation, Boeing 747 fans and Manchester Airport visitors etc in regards to the current situation with airliners scrapping their Boeing 747 aircrafts. 

We understand that technology changes, companies improve fuel efficencys, things get better but we also understand that the Boeing 747 aircraft changed the world of aviation in the 1970s, Manchester airport used to be dominated with them amongst other aircraft of course now they are disappearing. The Boeing 747 is an Icon, its legendary, its the aircraft that most kids would think of first if you asked them.

We know everything in the world cannot be kept as times change, but we feel that as the Boeing 747 is an Icon, something has to be done, we cannot and should not allow them all to be scrapped, we know we cannot save every single one every made but we need to preserve one for future generations, for our children to get on and browse, to see what the fuss was about, yes you can read all about them in books and on the internet but its nothing compared to actually being able to tour around one.

Peoples faces who have never or may never step foot on one may one day be able to tour one if only their was one preserved at Manchester Airport Aviaition park or somewhere around the airport. We understand this would be a huge undertaking which cannot happen overnight. the Aviaition park may need extending or a purpose built site around the airport built for it but we feel that it is necassary for this to happen and we herby purpose this petition to you to show how strongly we feel about this subject and our willingless for something to be done about it.

Im sure the Airport always wishes to improve itself for its customers, well this is your chance to show that you listen to your customers and aviation enthuiasts from around the world.
