How many kilometres can a Boeing 747 glide without fuel?
The 747 has about a 17 to 1 glide ratio. If we figure a cruise altitude of 42,000 ft. (8 miles). Then a 747 in cruise could glide 136 miles. Assuming that the landing area is at sea level. Even if cruise alt is a bit lower, its reasonable to say a large commercial airliner at cruise altitude can glide somewhere around 100 miles.

What keeps space shuttle from falling when it is over the flying 747airplane?
The space shuttle is bolted to the top of the 747 carrying it with extremely heavy duty bolts. The pilots of the 747 also have to fly lower and at a reduced speed in order to keep everything in place. While a typical 747 can reach speeds of about 570 mph, a 747 with a shuttle attached can only reach half that speed if everything is to run smoothly.
What is the average speed on landing speed of Boeing 747 jet?

What is the landing speed of a boeing 747?
All commercial (heavy) aircraft have a range of landing speeds which vary according to landing weight and configuration (flap setting). The normal range for the 747 for various weights and flap settings is around 130 to 160 kts.
What is the stall speed of a 747 heavy?
The stall speed of a Boeing 747 heavy (747-400 or -8 model) is around 155-165 knots indicated airspeed (KIAS) at typical landing weight. This speed can vary based on factors such as weight, configuration, and atmospheric conditions.
How fast does an airliner fly when it's landing?
An approach (landing) speed is determined by the type of plane, weight, weather and the condition of the runway. A heavy 747-400 might have a landing speed of 160 KIAS (knots indicated air speed) or about 185 mph.
