    Presume you mean this aircraft type (B747, not a B747-400) is 50 years old as the aircraft that departed today, B747-438ER VH-OEJ is a 400 series version and the original was a 100 series version.  Qantas' original was a B747-200. VH-OEJ, todays plane, rolled off the Boeing production line at Everett (Paine Field) - June 06, 2003, so only 17 years old. The first 747-400 was rolled out on January 26, 1988
