Mines a close tie with the Spit, Hurricane and Gladiator, althought I love some of the big radial fighters too (even if most of them were naval aeroplanes)....

I'm a convert to the Alpha Jet too... Grin

As if anyone needed to ask Roll Eyes

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Not an easy choice but I would have to go with the Tiger Moth & Hawker Hunter.

My top 3:

1. Concorde
2. Super Guppy
3. Dash 8

Quite a contrast between the first 2.

I'm going with the Boeings, anything other than the 737-100/200 series I'm good with, I like Airbus, but feel almost all there aicraft other than the A310, and A300 are FBW, which limits variety of there cockpits...as far as the others, Concorde was just one an aircraft to me, never caught on so can't say I realy like it, and military, not really into those for some reason, and yuor older aircraft i don't really recognize except for a ouple of them, which I don't really have a taste for

Beechcraft twin Bonanza
Beechacraft V35 Bonanza
Piper Cherokee
Mooney M20
Cessna 172, 152, 337, 310
P-51
P-38
P-39
Spitfire
Me- 262
B-17
B-24
...

you see, at any given moment any one of these planes and countless other could be my favorite. I just love airplanes

I think it would be easier to list what planes I do not like, than listing the ones I do.

The one plane that i think does look stupid is the "F/B-22" Looks rediculous in my opinion.

Oh, and if you wanna see one dead sexy Super Hornet? Check out this pic of VFA-102's (Diamondbacks) new "showbird" paint scheme. unfortunately, it's the only pic of this bird so far. And man, is it awesome!

Ah, interesting topic. I personally love Spitfire's. I have RealAir's Spitfire package, which is just plain awesome. Airbus as well is good for me. And just on a side note, I like McDonnel Douglas MD-11's.
