Interesting.

The nose of a B737/B747/B767/B777/A320/A330 and indeed a DC9/MDx/717 is physically "attractive" to me, whereas the nose of an EMB1x0/B787/A350/A380 is not.

Perhaps because computers have been put in charge of aircraft design instead of humans.

This could also explain why the Toyota Prius is one of the most unattractive cars ever developed.
