I’ve flown 737s, 767s and 747s. The 767 was a fun sports car but I have to to say the 747 was my favourite, especially the 400 which was just a gentleman’s aircraft, I really didn’t mind the large fuel tanks as they made it possible to fly to interesting destinations!
I have also flown the F27 and never associated it with the early 747s, perhaps I was too happy flying the big jet to notice.
