Question for all the people who call the spitfire 16 a noob plane.

Erm, it is kinda funny that you denigrate his opinion and then blather yours like yours counts for more.  I hate to break it to you, but the Spitfire is widely (not universally) seen as one of the best looking aircraft ever.  You, not him, are in the minority.

I did not nor did I intend to denigrate anyone's opinion. If so, I apologize. I stated my opinion clearly as "my opinion" and pointed out that "the spit is easily the best looking plane in the set" was only the other bloke's opinion. He worded it as if it were the gospel truth. He did not take offense, why did you? By your logic, you are denigrating my opinion.

Forgive me if I am in the minority of people that don't have a chubby for the Spitfire. The first time I saw it was in a Time-Life book in 7th grade and disliked it from the get-go. I have much respect for the plane itself but think its combat performance is a major reason for the idolization of the aesthetics of the design.

P40 would prob be the worst looking plane in Aces High

      In my opinion, the bubble canopied P-47 is the coolest looking aircraft of WWII.

Its not fat its elegant and is curved almost everywhere, men like curves the more the better thats prob the reason

The elliptical wing is a very elegant and efficient design.  Producing far less induced drag then other, more traditional, shapes.  The Spitfire wings are truly beautiful from an aerodynamic standpoint.

It's true, I meant no offense. Didn't say I wasn't trying to ruffle a few feathers though. 

And pervert, the Jug is not fat. It just has a "plus-sized" fuselage. 



edit: Since we have so many Spit models in the game, I would like to hijack this thread to request the uber P-47M:



Saw this very plane fly and up close on the ground. It is a stunner.
