Being the "Captain Sensible" that I am, and being well aware of the extortionate cost of owning and operating an Aeroplane;
as an alternative to my choice of the Cessna 150 Aerobat, I would choose the Thruster 600N Microlight/Ultralight, for reasonably affordable aerial transport!

Anything more exotic is purely in the mind of "Dreamers"...

I think that's the whole point of this topic Captain Sensible. If you had unlimited amounts of cash what aircraft would you like to own?

I couldn't afford to own any type of aeroplane, never mind a Spitfire, but everyone is allowed to dream. Tongue
