Hello out there people can some one help me out. I have always flown PAN AM since the early days of DC-7 aircraft up to the almighty 747B jets PAN AMERICAN had in there massive fleet of aircraft over the years. But I always stood by PAN AM through its good times and turbulent times until the end. I flew many 707 jet flights across the globe until they were retired and the almighty 747B jumbo jet which entered service and I flew on in 1969 of that year. How ever i am wanting to no was there a difference in the power of the 707 engines compared to the DC-8 jets or were they virtually the same but different manufactures.?? I flew the 727's and a short little PAN AM 737-200 jet were they the same power preformance as well. I have read many books and history of PAN AM and there aircraft and the designers or creators of the the modern airraft which i might add has come along way since the hay days of turbo prop planes.So if there is anyone out there who can help me out I would appreciate that alot. Cheers many thanks
