Speaking of the 747, I was once granted the extraordinary concession, by an employer, of flying First Class in a Pan Am 747-200.
It was a most unusual flight, originating in NBO and terminating at JFK. Sadly, I only joined it for the LOS-DKR sector with a stop at MLW, but it is etched forever in my memory, not least because it gave me a welcome break during a three-month stint in Nigeria.
Sadly, I did not return in similar style, packed into Economy Class on an Air Afrique DC-10 as far as ABJ, thence by B.727-200 of Nigeria Airways back to LOS.
