As most of my flying of late has been within the short haul area 747's have not featured. Previously flown on DC10 and L1011 and even an 707 back in 72.
This year on a trip to the USA we flew out on a 777 and back on a 747. There did not seem much to choose from the two. Luckily we had very little turbulence on either flight but what little there was seemed to give the 747 a strange motion almost like a wobbling jelly. As we were in the front end wonder what it was like further back. Not first class by the way.
My gripe with all Boeing's is the seating. Thats why we had to pay more for something more comfortable!

Of all the big jets I still like the L1011 and the DC10 - much more comfortable but that was probably before they wanted to stuff more and more people on them.
