747 is also was certainly the greatest aircraft ever made, at least for about 20 years, perhaps it still is.

DC-3 sure was.

SR-71 also a look in.

The H and V stabs on the 777 have a less advanced (earlier tech) fiber composite. Have there been any incidents of catastrophic failure of these? They are two parts of the ship that are subject to a...

EK have too many A380s for this flyer. I risk being in a bird that is, as of 2012, still largely untested.

Sure they have a bunch of 777s but the real problem is that they are not a member of any...

There are all sorts of fail written over the flight, without even looking at the cockpit: They put that many VIPs on the one flight? Ironically, the prosecutor's aim was off - he's still alive.

The A340 isn't a bad looking aircraft, and has interesting flattened intakes, and an interesting nose etc.

The 777-200LR however is remarkable in its range, the speed is almost that of a 747. It's...

Sheer awesomeness?

I think that the 747-8 is a very nice aircraft, probably the most beautiful. But for a flying cigar/dart? The 777 - 200LR looks awesome.

777-200LR - Greatest Passenger Plane Ever Made?
