Although it was not the first jetliner in service, the 707 was the first to be commercially successful. Dominating passenger air transport in the 1960s and remaining common through the 1970s, the 707 is generally credited with ushering in the Jet Age.[8][9] It established Boeing as one of the largest manufacturers of passenger aircraft, and led to the later series of airliners with "7x7" designations.BI432820 (K16158_11-4-1968_Kuwait_707_Delivery)Maximum size:1975px × 1275px (~7 MB)6.5in × 4.2in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1960s-1970s-707 family-AGE-aircraft-Boeing-commercial passenger planes-deliveries-design-engines-jets-Kuwait-passengers and travelers-service-Washington StateRelated Photo/Videos:View AllRelated Virtual folders:Discover - Special Collections
