The Boeing twin engined noise making machine eh? Spent more time in 737-300s myself, many years ago.

More of a BAC 1-11 fan myself... ;)

As I remember the BAC 1-11 was the noisiest aircraft operating out of Gatiwick when I worked there, closely followed by the Comet. :D

Only been on a 737 once. A 737-400 from Gatwick to Paris (CDG) & back which I suppose is twice. ::) Can't say I was particulaly impressed, it was just another airliner to me. The best part of the whole trip was meeting Jimmy Greaves* in the airport lounge. ;)

*PS. Only Brits of a certain age will remember him.

What I like about the -100/200, is that they look a bit pudgy, what with the (relatively) long and thin nacelles.  I like the clamshell reversers in operation, too!

Nothing like a 737NG, maybe the -800 model, closely followed by the -700  :)

I love the screaming originality of the old -100s. The -900s are frickin' huge though!

I have added it, didn't have enough spaces, so I grouped it with the 800.
