It was a great aircraft. I liked it better than the 747. Roomy cockpit, roomy cabin, galley downstairs, great airconditioning, best autopilot designed so far. A little short on range but OK from LHR, CDG, etc., to JFK, Bos. Mach .85 cruise, faster standard cruise than anything other than the Concorde I think. A little tight at LGA for an aircraft that size.
