Just once, I sat in the upper hump on a flight. On that flight the business class seats were up there. Taking off was a weird feeling, it was more like your house was taking off while you where in your favorite chair rather than an airplane. I imagine the A380 is like that now.

Flew 747-400 to Tanzania to climb Mt Kilimanjaro...staff was great and I felt totally safe in the old faithful.. I will miss them as they all begin to age out.
