Hah! I got to go down the runway sideways on one during a
landing. That was fun!

I got to fly back from Entebbe, Uganda to London on one. British
Airways. It was a full house. Very snug. I wanted to see the upper
deck, but no dice.

I’ve flown on most, if not all, of the variants. -200, -300, -400. As
you might expect, the -400s were the nicest. Got to make the trip
across the Pond to the UK in the bunk room on the top deck one time
because my business class seat back broke. Upper deck was full and I
wasn’t about to go sit with the common folk downstairs. The cabin crew
asked if I could sit in the crew bunk room since it wasn’t occupied
(trans-Atlantic flight, only one crew) and they said, “Sure!”
That was nice. Like having a private, albeit very small, suite.
They are big honking aircraft, that’s for sure. You should stand on
the tarmac under one some time to get an idea of their incredible size.
