well, back to the aircraft situation....for fear of sounding like a twat and sitting on the fence.....(shit where that splinter come from?) i think that most of the aircraft was butt ugly...(like the american women) but i cant possibly pinpoint any singular machine.....mainly through lack of pics!

I disagree with you strongly JJ1982 - most of the planes during WW2 were beautiful...you want ugly? look at most modern Jets....boring and bloody butt ugly! I quite like American women (the ones you see on TV anyway...Hmmm Angelena Jolie ) but if you want ugly...look for German women!

The Fw 189 was a beautiful, braceful machine. For me the P-47 ain't too cute, and the Vengeance/ vindicator/ Helldiver are all butt-ugly. For ugliest plane ever though, two words: Fairey Gannet

You've been in a Dehavilland Rapid (passenger Biplane) and a B-17 (Sally B) with me - your memory is more like a hole!

Nah really, you guys will have a great time - loads of things to see and i bet you'll come back with a whole load of new fav planes (maybe that will give us all a break from Lancs tireless pursuit of turning us all into rabid fans of the big old bomber... )

I bet he'll change his profile name to 'The Martlet kicks ass!'
