I'm just saying you could just be a little more diverse.

Haven't been in the forum for about a week so I'm a little late on this one.
Everyone knows the answer anyway.

My BEAUTIFUL P-40 any model or variation (they're all pretty much the same).

This is so hard to define my fav plane, as I would really like to fly, unencumbered and not encased in any material at all.....to have the full freedom to move about in total 3d space with no constrictions of accelerations or limits to either, direction, change of direction, or static placement..........I guess I need to fly in my head ..........

F-16 Falcon : neat fighter

UH-1 huey : well made helicopter that passed the armies expectations when it first appeared.

U-2 Ladybird - must be neat to operate, you fly 60 000 ft and see up to 4 sunsets a day.

SR-71 - looks better than the U-2

C-130 Hercules - good cargo plane

Space Shuttle - It would be neat to go into orbit.

ranger modified toy rocket - because it will make a neat explosion

Military-
F/A 18C Hornet (#2 Blue Angel...Semper Fi, Devil Dog!)

Commercial (not as easy)-
I like the nose of the 727, the overall grace of the DC-10-30 (not the 10-10), the size of the 777, and the reliability of the 737.

Wow, that could make for a great design for one of you gMax folks! I'd love to see that done.

No, Orville. You went last time.&&&&&&(P4 2.0Ghz, 640mb RAM, 40GB HD, 17-inch monitor, stock speakers w/ sub)
