Greetings to all!
Just a simple poll, really...when a particular type of plane is mentioned, what is the FIRST airline that pops into your head? Feel free to list any reasons why, if you'd like.
As an example, here are some of mine:
747: Pan Am
DC-10: American
L-1011: Eastern
737: Southwest
757: Continental
767: TWA
777: United
787: Japan Air Lines
A380: Emirates
A340: Edelweiss Air
A330: Hawaiian

TWA and the Constellation, obviously. No other plane and airline combination comes close.

Boeing 717: FL prior to the WN-FL merger, DL after the WN-FL merger (HA also operates 717's on interisland Hawaii flights)
Boeing 737-500: WN
DC-9: DL, NW

Re: What Airline Do You Associate With A Particular Type?
Living in the vicinity of Heathrow for many many years I tend to associate many aircraft types with those flown by BA/BOAC/BEA but that's because that what I saw most often. Particularly I associate them with the 744, 757, Tristar, Trident, BAC1-11 and VC10. I also associate British Midland with the DC9. Virgin comes connected to the A340
Outside of the home airlines a few others come to mind:
Tristar - Cathay Pacific
DC10 - Ghana Airways
767 - American
757 - Icelandic
747 Singapore/Cathay
737 KLM/Lufthansa
Caravelle - Air France
A310 TAP
All the rest sort of merge into a blob of A320s/330s etc and no particular airline stands out in my mind.
