Most beautiful fighter, bomber, and any kind of airplanes!!!

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i like the P-47's engine.........

 

[cheddar cheese]

I prefer those on the B-29...

The B-29 is very probably the best looking plane made. Even with turrets it's the cleanest, purest plane ever made. Every other plane has a jog, or something that looks added on.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Ill agree with that.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

i wouldn't it's a load of crap!! the B-2, B-1 and SR-71 are all "cleaner".........

 

[cheddar cheese]

No theyre not, theyre lumpy...

 

[mosquitoman]

The He-177 looked quite similar to the B-29, the fact that the former had rubbish engines is beside the point

 

[cheddar cheese]

The He-177 wasnt really anything like the B-29...the front of it waa covered in lumps and guns...the Me-264 has a near identical appearance to the B-29 from the front...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

how are the B-1 and B-2 "lumpy"??

 

[cheddar cheese]

Undulating gradients on the fuselage, big ugly square engines...

The trailing edge of the wing is too jagged.

The B-29 probably is the best looking plane ever, wmaxt makes a good point when he says that. It has such simple lines.

Thanks 8)

I think the coolest plane is the SR-71. I've had the luck to see planes from War bird air races to the F-15/16s including the NF-104 Starfighter with the rocket motor in it/s tail. I've also seen max rate climbs from B-1 Awsome, F-15 Super, NF-104 Fantastic, SR-71 Truly Incredable you can't even imagine a plane breaking the sound barrier while climbing at a 75deg angle!

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yeah the SR-71 is a damned cool plane...

 

[NightHawk]

How about choppers ??
Heres a cool russian chopper, KA-52 Hokum-B
And the B-58 Hustler,(its a bomber)

 

[mosquitoman]

For choppers it has to be the Huey, it set the design of all choppers after it

 

[evangilder]

Nice shot of the B-58!

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

the coolest helicopter ever has to be the CH-47............

 

[cheddar cheese]

The Apache is by far the best looking copter... 8) Its so ugly its beautiful!

 

[JCS]

I've always liked the looks of the Hughes OH-6 myself 8)

Only the first engines were problems. The later engines operated much better.

The B-29 did not have the best engines either with numerous failures and fires.

Yes it is! Nice pod!
