Using the "reduce" function in ac3d and deleting a few objects I was able to reduce the 747 model almost 80% without remapping textures at all. Note that you have to experiment with reducing different parts of the model different percentages (the ctrl+z comes in handy for this kind of experimenting :-)). The result is a little rough up close, but from a couple hundred meters viewing distance it looks pretty much the same.
