Opinion, Best LOOKING aircraft?
« on: August 06, 2009, 05:09:29 PM »
Just wondering what you guys think are the best LOOKING aircraft?  In the game or not...
Not the best performance, or the most effective... Just the coolest looking!!!
Here is mine... CR32

I love the two people in the lower right hand corner who look like they have their bags packed for a summer getaway.

I think we've had a post like this recently, but who cares, its a fun one. :aok

In the last post I believe i posted this plane, and I stand by my last pick. :rock

The thing just looks so slippery and fast.



And I'd like to drive this to the airfield to fly it

The pic Boner posted is of the Replica that Jim Wright built and flew to the 2003 OshKosh show.   He went down with the plane on the way home.  

But that is by far one of the most beautiful things created.

I don't know why you guys keep torturing yourselves with threads like these when you know the answer already.

What is the best fighter?  What is the best looking fighter?  It's easy...it's this plane.

P-38 looks like there was a bunch of oddball airplane pieces laying around and it was decided to make an airplane with then. :devil
