The soil under the concrete slab for the 747s nosegear wasn't as stable as they thought and this year the concrete slab has started to sink with the nosegear going down too. It has only gone down about a foot. They reckon its not going to go down any further but just incase they have stopped all tours of the 747.
Our tour guide said that they will be getting a few cranes in in the next few weeks and they will fix the problem. Apparently tours will re-commence out of the 747 in a few weeks.
As for the 707 they have just started to permit photography in it as of this year.
