On May 12, 1992, the last Pan Am 747 at JFK was sold and departed in a farewell ceremony complete with customary water cannons from fire trucks and a fly-by after takeoff.
Many former Pan Am employees came to JFK airport to pay their respects to Pan Am, sign their names on the aircraft, and watch the final departure of the last 747 named Clipper Juan T. Trippe.
John F. Clarke, with additional video from Jerry Labrusciano, produced this poignant and emotional tribute video to Pan Am and this final departure ceremony. The video has footage of the interior and exterior of the 747 jumbo jet registration number N747PA.

I am Clipper Juan T. Tripp. Over 20 years ago I was born, the first commercial 747 to fly. How proud I was to be delivered to Pan Am. Through the years my wings have spread over the oceans and distant lands. My wheels have felt the touch of foreign soil. Hands of many nations have tended to my needs. Many have walked my aisles in the service of those in my care. In countless ways, Pan Am have cared for me. Through endless night and days, you've guided me through the sky. Now my job is done, my task finished. I leave you as proudly as I came to you. My blood is blue, my heart a blue ball, farewell. We signed our names that morning with a heavy heart as a fond farewell. You were the first, and the last of the great Pan Am Clippers. We wish you godspeed on your journey, Clipper Juan T. Tripp.

idk why they didnt preserve this aircraft, N747PA. Should of belong in a museum not as a failed restaurant, rotting away until being scrapped. :(

Koreans purchased it and used it as a restaurant, you are correct, the business failed, and the fuselage rotted into scrap.

I loved this Pan Am 747,if I had all the money in the world I would have preserved this plane in its original look,Pan Am will be missed of its great customer service.

It’s really sad that N747PA was scrapped. I hope there’s still a 747-100 out there that we could put the livery of N747PA on and put in a museum and while it may not be the same aircraft, it still looks like the original N747PA and I personally think that me and lots of other avgeeks would really love that.

We should buy it, this needs to be in a museum, I don't mind if it's just the fuselage. This is history, one we should never forget.

“My blood is blue. My heart, a blue ball?” What genius came up with that silly analogy?

@christopherbarnard608 10 месяцев назад

Ummm .. the PA logo

@PanAmMuseum 9 месяцев назад

“Blue Ball” refers to the Pan Am logo and the poem means that the heart is the Pan Am logo.

This aircraft should‘ve been preserved It almost deserved it more as the first 747 not just because of it being the 2nd ever built, but also because of its history. It have been turned into a noodle restaurant, which failed but instead been preserved o7 747PA, Clipper Juan T. Trippe.
