Ldaies and Gentlemen, the Boeing 727-200. I need not say more
When it comes to jets, none of them beats the VC-10 and the Il-62, with those twin-mounted rear engines, in my own specific opinion :)
When it comes to props, the Connie is up there, above every one. That tail <3
But when it comes to passenger planes, there is one that can't be beaten (and I'm surprised it hasn't been brought up) :
I too love planes with T tails, but none of them beats 777, in my opinion at least(maybe L1011 mhmm). :)
I also wanna flight with our li-2, possibly the last airworthy original li-2 in the world (=dc-3 made from stalinium … )
Had the luck to once again experience a real Galaxy (C-5A/B that is) - before they soon will be retired.
What a sound. :wub: Just what a turbofan should sound like. Screw that C-5M...
Here this old lady is leaving my hometown airport last week - probably the last C-5A I saw. :(

You're lucky. The C-5Bs at my local ARB left last month, and they'll return as C-5Ms... it just doesn't feel right to see a C-5M versus a C-5A/B.
Well even if those TF39s make good noises which all of us aviation lover love they make quite a big noise. Personally I am not a fan of the C5 and those short nacelles look pretty bad and old. Those nacelles for the CF6 engines make the C5 a bit prettier in my opinion but the AN124 looks a lot better in all ways except for the nose and cockpit. I dont like big T-tails.
Those landing gears are so beautifully placed :wub: .
You're lucky....
More than that, considering we get a C-5 only once in many years. I think the last C-5A visit before this dates back to the early 90’s.
There is only one most beautiful Jetairliner in the world:
