I'm torn between the 737NG (for the same reason that Nexus said....I wouldn't need a co-pilot!) and an MD11. However, I'd probably choose the 737....because I don't have enough friends to fill an MD11!

A P-40 Warhawk. That plane is the plane for me, it's great on turns, it can fly slow enought for comfy flying, and I love how it looks.

Tough call. There's so many I'd want.
But if I had to choose just one, I'd probably go with the MiG-29.

For me, I'd have to go with the classic B-17 since its my favorite aircraft.  More specifically, I'd want one built by the original manufactor Boeing (not Vega or Douglas who also built them during the war) and I would want the G-1 model painted in the classic olive drap with grey bottom scheme.  So, basicallly a green Boeing B-17G-1 Flying Fortress.

I know. I've always wanted one. Cry


For me I would have to say a Travel Air E-4000. Simply an amazing aircraft. Cheesy

Nothing short of an F/A-18 Hornet... I don't really care which model... I certainly wouldn't argue taking an E/F of course... but I'd like to fly the original "bug" also... Oohhh, sexiest, coolest aircraft ever created... SPECIALLY it's landing gear... oh yeah...  IMHO Cheesy

Well now, this one isn't all that hard.....fly too high and you miss lots.....fly too fast and you miss some of the interesting stuff......fly without some aerobatic performance and you will get bored.......

........after catching a performance ride in a Vans RV-6 last year, I think something along the lines of this type as being very acceptable for me.....maybe even a Harmon Rocket......The RV-6 is a good cross country machine, good speed, very light on the wing and very maneuverable......Yup, I think I may just like one, like this.....

I was always partial to the Starfighter.  They used to visit the local base often when I was a child.

Other than that, I was/kinda still am a Herc fan, my uncle used to fly one for the CAF back in the 70's and 80's.
