    And just to round it off i've had confirmation from Boeing that the competition was the Douglas DB-1 and the Martin 146. :)

    which aircraft thrilled you the most to see flying

    B-17 and P-51 Mustang for me... although i've grown up living near Duxford so have seen many planes fly over and about. A more recent plane I was quite impressed with was the Eurofighter Typhoon

    This quote is on Wikipedia about the Boeing 299 (later to become the B-17)... I was just wondering if anyone knows what the other entries by other companies were?
