Favorite 5 Aircraft- All Eras Allowed.

yes there may be some british bias...............

Ooooo! CC, there's that 'B' word again!

 

[cheddar cheese]

Do you not like any Foriegn planes?

 

[evangilder]

But wait, they're foreign to me.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yes I know

But the lanc doesnt seem to talk about anything other than British planes

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i just prefer british planes, i genuinely like them better than other planes.........

 

[mosquitoman]

I agree, british planes were the best, or american planes with british pilots.
My Top 5:
Avro Lancaster
deHavilland Mosquito
Supermarine Spitfire
Hawker Tempest
Bristol Beaufighter (a highly underrated aircraft)

 

[cheddar cheese]

Nah, American planes with American pilots are the best.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

no, they're not...........

very nice list my man, well done................

 

[cheddar cheese]

Youre only saying that cos theyre British...

 

[mosquitoman]

So, most british planes were good when they were designed (the one exception to the rule is the Roc). Besides, they're all excellent aircraft

 

[cheddar cheese]

Not as good as Stangs, Jugs or Lightnings though...

 

[mosquitoman]

I'd take a Tempest up against any of those

 

[cheddar cheese]

It would be slaughtered 8)

 

[mosquitoman]

As if, the Tempest got the highest amount of Me262 kills out of any other plane, need I say any more?

 

[Nonskimmer]

'Fraid so. These guys are tough to convince.

 

[HealzDevo]

Also don't forget that the P-51 Mustang may have been designed by the US as a fighter but it took the British to iron out some problems including putting in a more suitable engine before its potential was realised.

Don't be an idiot, CC, or can't you help it? American planes with Americans pilots were the best? Especially when you come out with the Mustang as being one. Brilliant plane but the Spitfire was a better dogfighter, so how was it the best?

And the Tempest wouldn't have been slaughtered at low-level. In actual fact, the Tempest would have slaughtered the -47, gave the 'Tang and Lightning a run for their money.

Hmmm, didnt know that, interesting 8) I know the Tempest was a great plane, its one that I like very much, but I still feel that the 3 planes I mentioned were better...ill have to scrounge up an argument as I cant just say they were better - watch this space! 8)

 

[plan_D]

I'd advise you enlist the help of LG, for the Lightning one. I think most of the American aircraft were brilliant. You put down the British aircraft too much, or you just don't know how to write properly. Either way, the British aircraft were some of the best in the sky. Especially the Spitfire, Mosquito and Lancaster.

 

[cheddar cheese]

I could do the lightning one now if I had the time...I know enough about it...Just need to do a little more research on the Jug and the 'stang...
