What model Jumbo are you talking about? The "Classic", which is the 747-100 or 747-200 models? Or are you referring to the 747-300 or 747-400 model? Or perhaps the stubby ultra-long range 747SP? Is the aircraft loaded or empty? Also, temperature plays an important part 'cos the hotter the temp the longer it will take to accelerate. Furthermore, altitutde has a lot to do with it 'cos the higher the altitude (ie Mexico City) the thinner the air and the longer it will take. What engines... Rolls Royce, Pratt & Whitney or General Electric? Asking the speed time of a Jumbo is sorta like asking for the speed time of a Corolla. Which Corolla? Which engine, etc? Bill would be the best to answer this. But I don't think it would be a very good time 'cos a Jumbo needs quite a few thousand feet of runway to get to take-off speed. Assuming take off speed is around 200-230kmh and its taken you 5,000 feet to get to that speed (ie about a mile) then at 1/4 mile you're not going to be going very fast. Check the internet. I'm sure that buried in there will be some information that can help you. Sorry if this doesn't satisfy your question. seeyuzz river [Report message to a moderator]
