Towering over everything outside the Qantas Founders Outback Museum is a bright and shiny retired 1979 747-200B Jumbo. The tour of the jumbo and a nearby Boeing 707 (converted to a luxury private plane once chartered by Michael Jackson) is fascinating, and you can do a wing-walk with safety harness (bookings essential).
