    Mac truck of the sky PP...Initial design late 50s early 60s and they nailed it unlike Airbus..It rode turbulence well ,was the best handling big jet and it had 4 engines..Must admit I did like the DC8 as well...

    Engineering they remind me of a 50’ Chev big heavy but tough. A great aircraft that I spent most of my engineering life working on, I got to know them inside and out.
