Psh, you're biased.

I love the 'gull' wing look ...

When painted white, the Phantom was a great looking plane.

Some of its other paint jobs didn't do it justice, however.

Shes the Crazy Fat Chick that is easier and more open to suggestion then her pretty sister.

How bout this one?
You can't beat the cannon in the spinner!

Oh yeah, great choice, I always liked the Luftwaffe paint schemes too.

Not to mention the ridiculous kill records made in that machine...

You couldn't find a picture of a Navy Prowler?

My vote goes for that recently retired AC that shall not be named.

A Prowler is a Prowler.

The A-4 and the F-14 (someone had to say it) are a couple of my favorites.

The A-4's lines just look so natural and pleasing to the eye. Small airplane that packed a big punch.

The Turkey because of those huge intakes and its big size overall. With the wings in the stowed position and the glove vanes out in the old A model its hard to beat.

Tri-jets rule!

My fave...

coolest plane ever!

I'll bite too. Even though I'm not an aviator and didn't get to fly her, she was still my first love... (come on I'm of the Top Gun generation)

 

[PropStop]

I'll fly anything, so long as there is a Four Seasons and a Per Diem check wherever I land.

Not an aviator, but I always liked the look of the F-105.

P-38 Lightning

P-51 Mustang





I have a soft spot for Pan Am Clippers...not just the aesthetics; more the imagery of these things flying in the golden age of aviation all over the Pacific...warm breezes, beautiful island maidens and men in linen suits and panama hats, Mai Tais...
