I was 8 when I first saw a 'Jumbo' jet. It circled low over Wellington (NZ) so we could see it (the airport was and is too small to land it). It was breathtaking. For the last 7 years I have travelled in a 747-400 every 3 weeks or so. I realised recently that it's the only plane I really enjoy travelling in, it makes me feel safer and more welcome than other planes. If there is a choice of aircraft to a destination I'll take the 747 - all other things being equal.
