5 Favourite Planes

I seem to recall that it was a ground attack plane. Yes, the cockpit is ugly.


1)Piaggio P.108
2)Fiat RS.14
3)SAI 403
4)Reggiane Re.2001
5)P-38

The B-24J was ugly, that turret on the front aparently caused a lot of drag. The earlyer verisons were better looking, even if they weren't able to defend themselves from the front. Don't see why they couldn't have just put a modified chin turet in it.
 
The escort XB-41 was equipped with the same Bendix chin turret used on the B-17. It was shown to be no better than the manned turrets already in use.
 
Hi all,

Been lurking here for a bit and finally decided to join in. Thought the top 5 fave thread would be a not bad self-intro, so here are mine (as of today--they kinda change regularly):

In no particular order:

1. Mossie
2. Ju87
3. Zero
4. Lanc
5. Spitfire/Hurricane, can never decide

Cheers
