lol Marcel, yes, the glaring omission of the G.1 has been noted, but then again, the D.XXI and T.V seem to be missing from the list as well!Yeah, is hard to include them all.
But missing the Fokker G-1......
Yeah, witch is of course a very bad omission, but it's not that relevant as the of those 3, the G-1 is obviously the winner. That's a no-brainer, I mean, a twin tail-boom layout, what could go wrong?lol Marcel, yes, the glaring omission of the G.1 has been noted, but then again, the D.XXI and T.V seem to be missing from the list as well!
Since the Martin B-26 didn't even get a billing I've boycotted this thread.Hello
like many of us I have many favourites. I tried to list them, but surely missed some. Anyway, most of mine have not got a single vote and almost as many are not in the list. Not that I'm surprised except that Ju 88, He 162, Ar 234, Ki-67, P1Y1 Ginga, B-26 Marauder and SBD have not got any votes.

sm.91 better?P-38,
I have always been attracted by its sleek lines.
NO!sm.91 better?
YES
IMO the P-38 not only looked better but out performed the SM.91 which never got further than the prototype stage. The P-38 was almost 80 mph faster!
ok but 6 20 mils would shreed the p-38 oh my gosh plus it had a rear gunner and better turning for sureIMO the P-38 not only looked better but out performed the SM.91 which never got further than the prototype stage. The P-38 was almost 80 mph faster!
You have to catch it first and did not turn better according to wing loading calculations. For the most part a rear gunner on a WW2 fighter eventually became ballastok but 6 20 mils would shreed the p-38 oh my gosh plus it had a rear gunner and better turning for sure
Less than prop gear box armor!How much did their compasses weigh?
im not really talking about the L I'm taken about the G as you know Italy never had a lot of modifications templates like other countriesYou have to catch it first and did not turn better according to wing loading calculations.
