I hesitate to disagree with a mod, but I seriously doubt anyone would mind gratuitous pictures of Concorde. I cannot imagine any situation (on an airplane-related website at least!) where I would not want to see a picture of it.

It is a major regret that I never had the opportunity to fly on one, sad to relate.

Of planes I have flown on, my favourite is still the 747-400. My first ever long haul, BA to CGK, may perhaps be why, and I find it sad that SQ seems to be phasing them out. Last week I flew with LH SIN-CGK and I was delighted to discover it was a 747-400 and on both sectors I noticed a distinct lack of bumpiness - was it because the plane is bigger and more substantial than the usual 777s that I go on with SQ?
