I have flown as passenger in most of the above listed aircraft, plus a couple not listed so far:
Argosy from Aden to Francistown, a company King Air and Learjet while working in Saudi Arabia. (Owned by Lockheed). Until now, I have never tried the A380 or the 787. Here's hoping!
Most memorable: Whistling Tit from Aden to Francistown and the Manston based DC4 sent to bring us back from Francistown to Aden. Both were flying sheds!
Most scary: an ex Pan Am DC3 from Caticlan to Manila and the T21 at Leeming when the winch cable snapped at 400' on my second launch.
Smoothest: British Midland Viscount from Heathrow to Liverpool. Despite having my face glued to the patio window, I only realised we had landed when I noticed the tarmac and grass were not getting bigger!
