	N747FU (cn 21992) (Best viewed at 1152 size.) The engine covers say N747A, but this SP was wearing N747FU when it visited Cleveland for an extended stay back in 2007. Since the visit, the aircraft has been re-registered to N747A, and the paint scheme has changed several times as well. Pictured here on the Air Services ramp on a chilly November afternoon.

	N747FU (cn 21992) Finally beginning to roll down runway 24R, kicking up some light snow as our special guest starts its flight back to San Jose CA, 12-3-2007. I think Michi was glad to see it leave. He was starting to mutate into a popsicle before my eyes, being out in this days brutal wind chills.

	N747FU (cn 21992) The Ballet San Jose 747 gets a well-coordinated deicing on a cold December morning prior to departure. The aircraft was a welcome sight at CLE for the past several days and a conversation piece for many. Cleveland was the maiden flight for the aircraft from San Jose under current ownership. I look forward to another visit in the future. Some of us had the rare opportunity of touring the inside; it was an incredible sight.
