I found one statement that a 747-400 has 147,000 pounds of high-strength aluminum.
It takes about 32 empty beer cans to make 1 pound. So 32 cans x 147,000 pounds = 4,704,000 cans. (4 million 704 thousand)
That is 784,000 six packs or 196,000 cases. I drink about 6 beers a day. I think it would take me 2,148 years to go through enough cans to get the 147,000 pounds.

It takes 32 12oz soda cans, or 28 beer cans. Beer cans are heavier. (BUT !! Beer cans can be brought back to any liquor store for a refund same as beer bottles... What makes this a much better deal is that if you bring 28 Beer cans to a metal scrap yard, you will get about 1.00$ for ther scrap aluminum, but bringing them back to a Beer store you will get 0.10$ every can, if you add this up it equals 2.80$ therfor you make about 2.8 times more money...)
