    Huh. Didn't know that they were the same. The models I had when I was growing up certainly gave the impression that the Megatop had a stretched upper deck compared to the Big Top. Maybe it was an optical illusion. Or maybe my models were just inaccurate. Now I know.

      The SUD on the 743 and 744 are the same.

          Just to remind you guys that before SQ to abolish all of its aircraft nick name, they planned to call the A380 as the "GigaTop"...!

                    hmm, for the sake of completeness,

                    MegaTop
                    GigaTop
                    TeraTop
                    PetaTop
                    ExaTop
                    ZettaTop
                    YottaTop

                    imagine - introducing Singapore Airlines new flagship, the B7007-700 YottaTop!

                      Won't need to fly by then. I'd be teleporting myself, fortunately.
