Oh my goodness... always the highlight of my week/day/month to see one of those beauties. 

there is a man who owns one and keeps it at the airport I work at and usually about 2-3times a week I'm able to catch him at the gas pump after his flights. 

And man, I seriously doubt there is a sexier airplane in this universe.  It just commands respect.  There are three Extras in our area and today two of them stopped by.  And I have to say, I LOVE the lines on those airplanes.  Each one is in the most incredible, pristine condition.  The finish is a perfect mirror smooth and there isn't a hard line on that airplane anywhere. 

It is gorgeous, and one of these days, mark my words... I WILL fly one! Seeing that airplane every week is my motivation...

So yes, here is a discussion on the most gorgeous airplane on (or above) earth!

You are all wrong, it's the P51, closely followed by the English Electric Fightening from the rear quarter in a full after burner tight turn.
