I think the ugliest aircraft would probably be the Junkes G38. There is an observation compartment in the wings and only 2 were ever built. Shocked

Unusual perhaps but ugly? - I don't think so. One of these giants was a regular visitor to Croydon Airport before WWII. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FP6Qvvdb1io

Agreed. I can't think of any aircraft that I find ugly, just different or interesting...

...Apart from, that is, the F-35... complete with rotating anus.  Grin

All i had to do was type in worlds ugliest airplane into google images, and this was the first thing that popped up.

EEWWW... Yeah, unfortunatly, it does exist. Its the early Beluga. It is often known as the "pregnant guppy". Undecided

Not a fan of this one, even though it's rather new. Maybe not the ugliest thing I've ever seen...but

Oh come on... the A380 is sexy compared to some other aircraft on here. Don't just pick it because it's the first you see and your a boeing fan.  Wink

CCCP 19172... What the heck!?! (aka Beriev Bartini VVA 14 according to Google)


Beluga, horrid
Dreamlifter, bad, but not as horrid
VVA14 is just pure 'what the?!'
