I attended Farnborough '82 wearing my hobby "Press hat" for a local paper .
Managed a demo flight on the 757, then next day blagged my way past the officious company rep to go on the 767.
On the pretext of doing a cockpit layout comparrison!!!!, so lots of time on the flight deck of the 767.
Enjoyed both trips out to lands end, I still have 2 complimentary ties from Boeing with the London logo of Royal Palace guards. Different colours for the different aircraft.
Those were the days.
My next 757 trip was in 1984 Heathrow-Schiphol on G-BIKI, which I think is still going strong with DHL.
