the P-40 had rugged good looks.just my opinion and i,m sticking to it:)

nice pic of the "jug" erich.give us some more.
 
For me, it would have to be the P-51. She was GORGEOUS! If she were a woman, she would win a Beauty Queen contest!

As for bombers, i would say the B-17 Flying Fortress was pretty good.
 
I concur, the "Long Nose" 190 was an absolute beauty. Sleak, slender, ellegant; also retained a characterist of the Butcher Bird: the sinister look.
 
As 'erotic' appeal, Spitfire MkI or II (the ones without ugly pipes protruding from the wings) it seems designed by the air itself.

As 'engineering' appeal, Ta152H: looking at it one has the impression that there is absolutely nothing more than necessary, skinny and essential.

The most graceful elegant aircraft has to be the spitfire - even with the volks airfilter !! 8)

For bombers - the wellington lancaster are my favourites for the uk the B17 for the US.
