Who is the inventor of the Boeing 777 Freighter cargo plane?
The Boeing Commercial Airplane Company. Many people helped to design it.
The same way any other airplane flies. Airplanes have lifting surfaces - the wings and the tail. The faster you move air past them, the more lift you get. A 747-400ER has a maximum takeoff weight of 910,000 pounds; if you move the plane fast enough to generate enough lift to counteract that much weight, it will fly.
Where it is my seat on Boeing 737-800?
Inside!
But seriously, they load the plane to keep it in balance. Unless you pay extra to reserve a seat when you buy a ticket, they'll assign your seat when you get to the airport.

How much cost the Real Flight Simulator?
In today's market, you might be able to pick up a used working full motion sim for $1.5 - 3 million with basic visuals. Newer ones with all the latest hi res full day visuals will run well north of $10 million. Much of the price depends on the type of aircraft (not much need for 727 sims today).
To be honest, I think a MS Flight sim with multiple big screens and a full pilot station would be a better buy.
