Amazing thread. Won't even bore you folks with my ages.
I have riden in, and because my dad was often PIC for the general aviation examples, assisted in piloting:
Cessna:
150, 172, 177, 182 (except for the Cardinal/177) were club aircraft which my dad was a member for ~15 years (East Hill Flying Club, based in Ithaca, NY)
Piper:
Piper Cub (as I recall, due to CG limits, I sat in the front seat), Piper Cheroke 140
Mooney:
Mooney Chaparrel, Mooney 201 (my dad co-owned both of these types)
Grumman:
Grumman Tiger (another EHFC flying club airplane)
"Some fabric covered sailplane":
On the other side of lake Cayuga from the Ithaca, NY airport & EHFC (see above) was a sailplane club. At a fly-in breakfast, which my dad drove us to, a raffle based on my breakfast ticket won me a free ride in a sailplane. The sailplane pilot was also a member of the EHFC, the weather was grey but with a high ceiling, and no thermals. We went up, detached, circled right back down to the airfield.
Commercial Aircraft:
Boeing 720 (United), 727, 737 (Southwest equipment, virtually all 737 models), 757 (Delta)
Airbus:
Airbus 320 (to and from the island of Antigua)
Saab:
Saab 340 (pathetic regional carrier Silver Airways, has ontime performance around 5% - I exaggerate. Surprised they didn't manage to kill all onboard, both flights to & from Key West were delayed by maintenance issues)
McD:
DC-9 (Allegheny/US Air)
Lockheed:
Lockheed Electra, Wash, DC to Syracuse regional flight, late 60s.
L-1011 (Seasonal carrier that switched routes chasing revenue per tourist)
BAC:
BAC One-Eleven (Allegheny Airlines) two leg trip from Ithaca, NY to Denver, CO.
There was a Piedmont turboprop, one aisle two seats arrangment.
My Dad could one-up me. He rode a Delta Convair 880.
Probably missed one or two airplanes in their somewhere
