  1. Pretty much anything is possible but in case of commercial airlines, it must make sense moneywise. Turning an old 747 from 4 to 2 engines would definitely require new type certification and as a result, lots of extra expenses on training in addition to all the design costs and implementation costs. It's simply too expensive and the already old 747 doesn't have long enough remaining lifespan to pay the bill the long run.

  2. If 747 is The Queen of the skies, does that make A380 the King of the skies? A bit overweight but strong.
