Boeing 747-300 (RR)

The Boeing 747-300 had a stretched upper deck to fit more passengers, it was also used as a retrofit for the 747-100 and 200 called the "SUD" (Stretched Upper Deck).

Almost all of Cathay Pacific's 747-300s were repainted in the Brushwing Livery by the time the handover on July 1 1997 occurred, notice the PRC, Hong Kong and British Flags are not featured on the Livery to make it look neutral to all countries and territories.
