Talk:Boeing Everett Factory

message: This page states that the 777 is larger than the 747.  I don't think this is true.  It looks like the 747 is slightly larger, and seats more people than the 777.
The 747 is larger.  By the way, the the fuck would an article about an American building from an American money be using European measurements as its primary?
:No, Boeing 777 can never be bigger than 747. Yes, there are 77Ws carrying more passengers than normal 747s, but they all use very high-density layout. For example, if 747 use the same density of Air France 3-class 468 seat 77W, they can easily exceeding nearly 600 seat, just like Japanese domestic 747s.Awdqmb (talk) 03:22, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
thread_title: 777 bigger than 747

message: What is the objective of this page? I think it should provide information on the Boeing Everett Factory not reiterate (almost verbatim) information on every wide body Boeing plane.  Links to the 747, 767, 777, and 787 pages should be included, but the information should be removed from this page.  Let's strive to include information such as date of construction of the building, major expansions, big rollout dates, world records, on-site workforce, overhead crane accidents, etc.

replies: text: Ok, so I removed the information on Boeing aircraft after a quick examination revealed the text of the sections on the 747, 767, 777, and 787 was taken directly from existing articles. --ABQCat 18:32, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposal to vastly scale back this page

message: Some ideas I had for what to include on this page: a picture of the factory, rollout pictures if available, detailed statistics on the building, construction cost if available, workforce, power consumption, location.  Any other ideas would be great - this building is awesome. The article should be equally so.  --ABQCat 18:32, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Edit: Swap the decimal value you have now into degrees as is and you'll be right on target. I don't know how to do that myself. -- VegitaU (talk) 22:09, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Coordinates 

message: This article could be vastly expanded still. When was it built? What/Who? was involved in building it? How much did it cost? etc. -- œ™ 19:59, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  It needs a history section, as well as a paragraph or two describing Boeing's relationship with the airport and facility. Before I went there I thought that the whole complex, airport and all, was owned by Boeing. When people talk about the Everett Factory, they often are referring not just to the one building but to the entire complex.--Bruce Hall (talk) 11:20, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: History section needed

message: I removed the myth about it raining in the factory. There was a documentary on either Boeing or the building and the Boeing employee that led the filmmakers around the factory stated that it was a myth that the building has its own weather. I do not remember if the employee was a tour guide or an executive, though. To the best of my recollection, he did not mention clouds being present when the building was built. Even the newspaper the article cited did not claim that it rained in the factory. I found a Wired article that claims the factory had clouds, but does not mention rain. Someone who went on a tour of the factory says on his blog that the rain is a myth, but that there were clouds when the factory was built. Both of the news sites and the blog say that there were clouds near the ceiling when the building first opened, and that an air circulation system was used to get rid of them. It makes sense that Boeing would get rid of the excess moisture so that it would not adversely affect the building or planes. I searched Boeing's website using its internal search engine and by restricting Google search results to the Boeing website, but I could not find any mention of the factory ever having clouds or weather. 
Let's assume that the story about there being visible moisture in the air when the building was built is true. I am not sure that I would call the moisture "clouds" in the same way that I would not say that a bathroom has a cloud after the shower is used. However, it would be better than having the article claim that it rained or that the factory has its own weather of any kind. I am not opposed to putting the cloud story in the article, but I would prefer to call it "moisture" or "cloud-like moisture". However, if someone wants to put the story in, I will leave the decision about what to call it up to him or her. If there is some reason you wish to contact me, please use my user talk page. -- Kjkolb (talk) 05:25, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

message: It'd be great to see details of how the huge roof is supported.  Are there no internal columns at all?  How much does the roof weigh, and what are its dimensions? Trafford09 (talk) 10:25, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
