Most Beautiful Aircraft

[davparlr]

Again...A-5 Vigie

Certainly makes my list of most beautiful planes. It does NOT look like an F-111! I like the F-111, I think it is an interesting design, but not beautiful. I also think it is highly underrated, the F-117 of its era.

how does she not look like a F-111? and it's not WWII but the Concorde is the only aircraft in the history of aviation that comes close to beating the Spitfire......

Looks ugly and sounds uglier. Reminds me of a stork standing on one leg.

i don't know if you're refering to the Concorde or Spitfire- but either way i can assure you you're wrong

Lanc - you've obviously been rocking the hashish...

Spitfire is sexy, concorde... ehhh. THere are many other beauties out there. You gotta see them in person, you can't truly judge beauty from a picture.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

in what way is the Concorde not the most stunningly beautiful airliner ever produced?

 

[Gnomey]

I agree the Concorde is great, how can you not see that...

???? Let's see. Oh, yes one has side by side seating the other tandem, one has swing wings, the other fixed. One had strange intakes under the wing, the the other has clean intakes in front of the wing. One is kind of chubby, the other, lean and clean. No wonder you think they look alike. You probably think the Lancaster looks like a B-17.

how dare you suggest i would degrade the Lancaster to the depths of human filth that is the B-17...........

Now some of you are no doubt thinking that that statement was overly biased towards the lancaster, well i would also like to say that the British parts of the Concorde were far better looking than the lanc..........

The Dassault Mirage series

I like deltas. The Mirage made my list of good looking aircraft.

doesn't make mine..........

 

[pbfoot]

natuarally I've chosen this

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

doesn't make mine..........

And that is supposed to be the deciding factor if something looks good or not. For Christs sakes you think that French Bombers look good! You thinkt the Lancaster looks better than a B-17!

[Matt308]

And the Mirage series are beautiful planes. [Aaaghh. I think I just complemented the french.]

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

There have been worse looking aircraft.

P51D, Hurricane, Spitfire and Sea Fury. No preference, just love them all the same! And for sheer brute force, the English Electric Lightning!
