Korean Air 747-8s To Become Next USAF “Doomsday” Planes!

Sierra Nevada Corporation will use five Korean Air 747-8s to make replacements for the E-4B “Doomsday” aircraft of the U.S. Air Force.
We recently saw that Sierra Nevada Corp. won a USAF contract worth $13 billion, to supply replacement aircraft to the E-4B fleet. Boeing built these aircraft using the 747-200 airframe as its basis.
Photo: Berend VerheijenThe oldest of these jets first entered service around 50 years ago, initially as an E-4A. The first E-4B flew in 1978, with the previous aircraft getting upgraded to the same specification later. All four E-4Bs are older than the presidential VC-25As, which also use the 747-200 airframe.

Many people suffer from sleep disorders like sleep apnea or insomnia, which leads to other health-related issues. A sleep-deprived body cannot function properly and the lack of focus caused by a drowsy mind leads to failure in carrying out day-to-day work. Some people spend the night tossing and turning in their beds, while others may not get as much as a shut-eye.
There are plenty of foods that can help you catch up on your sleep. But dietitians also suggest not eating anything right before sleep time. So, there is a string of beverages that you can have at bedtime, which can induce sleep in an equally effective way.

Here's a list of some drinks that can help you get a good night's sleep –
