April 26, 201115 yr This thread was a great idea; I hadn't thought much about the distant past & aircraft I've experienced in a long time. For me, the old iron I see in some lists prompted some surprising memories:L188 ElectraDC-8-70707Tu134Tu154L1011 200 & 500D10 10 & 30747SP747 1,2,3,4, & CombiBoeing & Airbus, every model save 764, 772LR, a342 & 332.

April 26, 201115 yr Flew for the first time in 1968 and did a fair bit on business between 1978 and 1995. My list came out longer than I thought it would:-Vickers Viscount 800 seriesHandley-Page Dart HeraldBoeing 727-200Boeing 737-200Boeing 737-300Boeing 737-5

Out of those I will most certainly never have a chance to get a ride on, I guess I'd miss the good ole twenty-seven and the ten-eleven the most, plus the DC-10/MD-11.
