In 25 years of travel, I have been fortunate enough to have experienced every major jet aircraft that has been produced in the Western world (*) from the DC8 to the 777, with the sole exception of the Airbus 340.
(* - defined as a jet aircraft manufactured in the European Union or the Americas with production run greater than 50 units.)

So sorry to be pedantic, but what about the de Havilland Comet? There were more than 50 of those built and they were all out of service by 25 years ago.
