Boeing 707

At the last bash, a lot of discussion was about the aircraft we had been flown in, specifically British aircraft of the 50s to 80s that had been the subject of threads in Pax&SLF. As we have a more cosmopolitan participation on Saturday, can I ask people for their travel experiences in the 707? Lots of leg room, but so noisy that you almost had to communicate by passing notes was my experience. BOAC (Boeing Only Aircraft Company) loved them so I flew in them often Delhi - Karachi - Beirut - Rome - London as a kid. It's not that long since Iranian carriers stopped using them, presumably when the second-last had been cannibalised for spares for the last one.

The B707 and A220 should give us some things to talk about at the bash!
