see the Britannia but don't see the Lancastrian so it would seem to follow you'd prefer the Argus over the ShackletonI don't have any favourite aircraft, military or civilian, but as far as airliners go, and in no particular order, I have soft spots for:
Vickers Viscount
Bristol Britannia
Airspeed Ambassador

First airplane I ever rode, too.
