I agree with Vavavoom. What are we contributing to here? We have enough threads about your favourite plane. And was there any reason to go spam three polls like this?   :-? 8-)

MODERN jetliner? Although it was ahead of its time, I think not!


Well, if you're including the 737 and 747 in their most general terms, they are not that much younger than the 10... :)

Now you're splitting hairs. The 737/747 are both still flying in large numbers today and both have updated, state of the art versions.

The VC10 is a 1960's aircraft that was dropped by most airlines before the end of the '70's.

Asking that question is a bit like asking; ooh, what's your favourite type of cancer? :o

They're all bad - some are just less bad than others. They're all just tubes full of people, with a pointy bit at the front and the back, and a cylinder hanging off each wing (With the exception of concorde, but that's not a modern one).

I suppose my answer, if I was pushed, would be the Airbus A380. Because that one isn't just a tube full of people. It's two tubes full of people, with two cylinders hanging off each wing ;)
