The 2nd most beautiful, nose up aircraft on the approach, is the TriStar L1011. She flies with an approach attitude of about 7.5 degs NU and if not correctly handled, she can come close to a tail strike on landing. (A tail "skid" projects out of the fuselage tail when the gear is extended.)

Concorde looked the best - but I have no idea of her approach attitude.
