- computator 11y ago> It is the largest aircraft ever to have disappeared without a trace. The article is dated September 2010. Flight MH370, a Boeing 777-200ER, that went missing in March 2014 is quite a bit larger in every dimension than N844AA, a Boeing 727-223. Length and wingspan: N844AA: 153x108ft or 47x33m [1] MH370: 209x212ft or 64x65m [2] [1] http://www.museumofflight.org/aircraft/boeing-727-223 http://www.museumofflight.org/aircraft/boeing-727-223 [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_777#Specifications https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_777#Specifications

- computator 11y agoMH370 did hold the record for "the largest aircraft ever to have disappeared without a trace" for over a year. But since a trace of MH370 has indeed been found, I guess we should say that the title for "the largest aircraft ever to have disappeared without a trace" has reverted back to N844AA.
