think it was the most beautiful aircraft ever produced. Actually I rode on one,
towards the end of the Awesome80s. 1989 to be exact. Yes they were still flying
them then and I flew on one from Denver to Cancun. There is really nothing that
spectacular about the Boeing 707, when you take into consideration, all of the
perks that most wide-body aircraft have now, such as your own personalized movie
screen (alas the 777) but for its time it (the 707) was the real deal. The
original commercial jet aircraft used to transport large groups of passangers,
long distances in quick time. It is still a beautiful piece of aircraft to look
at. Its distinct feature of course is the antenna that portrudes from the front
of the tail.
