What's the favourite plane you have flown on?

The following is a list of aeroplanes I have travelled on. Memory has failed me a little and of course some of these I have flown on many many times but appear in the list only once. There was a time (AvGeek territory) when I kept a record of every single aircraft, flight number, registration and to/from for all the flights I had taken but that ran out of steam when career and commuting simply became too onerous. So, not definitive but an interesting discussion point. They are not in any order!


What's the favourite aircraft you have ever flown on, what's the best looking aircraft you have flown on and what's the most unusual. Listen to this weks Bits & Pieces Episode 175 of the Airplane Geeks and find out what I think.
