I was just thinking about some of the airlines that I have flown on that are no longer around (due to bankruptcy or merger) as well as aircraft "types" I will probably never fly on again. I thought it would be interesting to see which ones you have been on as well...

2. Pan AM

3. Republic Airlines

4. Braniff Airlines

5. Mexicana Airlines

6. Eastern Airlines

7. PSA

8. Hughes Airwest

10. ATA

11. National

12. Continental

From aircraft types probably MD-11, after KLM retires them I don't think we are going to see them in pax service for long. Flew one flight with MD-11 when I was like 5 years old, from Cyprus to Helsinki with Finnair.

 

// And actually I think I could possibly also count Finncomm, it is nowadays owned by Flybe and called Flybe Nordic and has a new livery too.

I flew on Canadian Airlines ... that was in march 2001.. CYWG - CYUL. no clue what airplane that was.. I think an airbus

Sorry no good list of the aircraft except I do remember a few Fokker F50 and 100's. Bottom line is if you are a Canadian airline and you want to stay out of bankruptcy, best keep me from flying on your planes.

Eastern Airlines - Super Connie, DC-6, DC-7

Pan AM - 707 (Flight #1 and Flight#2)

 

This is what I miss most of all though, just look at the delicious food being served!
