I do love the looks of the F-18, the B-17 is one amazing aircraft, and the 777 for power and looks. ;)

I think I might need a second opinion ... I've got quite a soft spot for the Hawker Hurricane as well.

Some people seem to forget the Hurricane and just focus on the Spitfire but there were more Hurricanes than Spits in the Battle of Britain and they shot down more planes.  Plus it's just a beautiful plane.  Gotta love it!

Except my preferred aircraft... (see post earlier in thread)  :D ;)


Stronger, faster, larger, longer, louder (starting to sound like a Daft Punk song here...), twin engines, and it's French!

:D :)

It's not the biggest, fastest, most powerful, most beautiful, or the most comfortable, but for some reason, my favorite is the Dash-8. :D
