Does a 747 fly in to pix airport? - 1
"PIX" is the identifier for the airport in Madalena do Pico, AZORES. Its runway is not long enough for the 747.
If you were thinking of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - its runway could accommodate the 747, but no airline flies one there on its regular schedule. That doesn't mean you'd never see one there - the President could fly his 747 there, for example. The weight of the plane would also have to be considered, since not all parts of Pittsburgh's pavement could support certain aircraft weights.
Azores Airlines flies into PIX and its fleet consists of Airbus A-310 and A-320 aircraft. So there are no 747 being flown there by scheduled flights.
In the Azores, the only airfield with occasional 747 operations might be Lajes -
Could be civilian airplanes operating military charters - passengers or cargo -
747 with reduced weight (reduced payload) can operate from rather short runways -
I once flew a 747 into and out of Santa Barbara (California) - 6,000 ft runway -
Airplane wss empty - and went there only to be painted to different airline colors
