I need the name of the airline, highly specific type of aircraft (as in Biology: the genus and species), routing and the year or decade of your flight.
If you have lots of flights and no time to post, just tell us your exotic aircrafts or historical or almost historical aircrafts flight log.
I will begin with 6 "exotic" aircrafts in my flight log:

I'm only 16 so I don't have many interesting flights but one was when I flew from AUH-Jeddah. The flight was operated by a very old ex-iraqi 737 and it was not the most pleasant experience of my life!

Dan, you never cease to amaze me with the amount of rare aircraft you've flown on, that I want to fly on!

Well Tom, four years ago that's just what I was thinking - I'd flown three 'raries' purely by chance and, aside of that, bagged 36 different Iberia A320s (interspersed by a few joy rides on the MadDogs or ATRs) so I was ready to go out and catch some interesting types for a change! I began taking myself off around Europe for weekends when I was 16, and never really looked back since - the moral is; if you want to get out there and fly these things; just do it!
Btw - that Channel Islands trip you did was so interesting I might just have to copy it, especially as Air Southwest are having a sale at the moment and all their flights are £39 each way to JER Did you fly the Blue Islands J32, I can't remember now?

I'm afraid I didn't, but that's on my list next time I do the Channel Islands!

Ah, the fares are very reasonable - about £30 each way. Sorted out a JER-ACI-GCI-JER on two Trislanders (BlueIslands & Aurigny) and the J32 with the former.
