What's the old A340 joke? Only gains altitude because the earth is round?  |
When United was phasing their 747s out, the last of them all seemed to get sent to SFO. After a long trip across the Pacific in a nearly-decommissioned 747, there's nothing about an A340 that would bother me.
Biggest irony of the old 747s: half of the lighting didn't work, there was no seat back entertainment at all -- but the ashtrays worked!
I'll take an old A340 to Europe any day.
