Vickers Supermarine Spitfire. Love them all, but my real passion is for the later models with the Griffon engine.

Avro Lancaster. Just an awsome sight. I get goose bumps every time I see one.

Avro Vulcan. Like the Lancaster, just awsome. Sadly missed on the UK airshow scene.

Hawker Hurricane. Unsung Hero. Far too few of these wounderful aircraft around these days.

English Electric Lightning. If you never saw a Lightning (or a Vulcan) perform, you really missed a treat. Just magnificent. Last truly British performance aircraft. Sadly missed.

Hawker Sea Fury. The ultimate piston engined Fighter. Served with distiction in Korea when the world was changing over to jets. Too few remaining in the UK these days.

Hawker Hunter. Classic British jet fighter. Nice to see so many still around.

Gotta be the Ju-87 Stuka (which looks quite aesthetically pleasing in an Afrika Korps scheme) or the F4U Corsair (preferably a World War II model). Love those gull wings!
