Which of these planes do you prefer to fly?? -- PIC

[Anaxogoras]

I can't stand the look of those Spanish 109s.

[texastc316]

gimme the 190, replica or not.

[usvi]

There are several 190 restorations in the works.

Here is one it's a FW 190d-13.

[TwinEng]

Yup.. just doesn't look like a photo to me

Why would anyone ever bother to paint a picture of REPLICA planes flying in formation???   That would make no sense whatsoever.

It is a photo that I just happened to find on the Internet on a photo website.

It is too bad that the planes are not the real thing.   I thought that they both looked rather odd.

I would rather fly the Spitfire which is stalking these two, you can't see it because it's just out of frame.

I would rather fly the Spitfire which is stalking these two, you can't see it because it's just way out of frame.

Actually they're both chasing a run 'n' gun Mustang from 2K back. In about five minutes he'll be over his ack and they'll get proxied.

now see, there's your problem. the spitfire is stalking them.


if there were a p38 there, they'd be wreckages on the ground already.

If I were in a 234, I'd fly under and pop up infront of your stalking business and pop you and save my fellow countrymen.

Fake or no fake, great to see that shape back in the air. 

[MiloMorai]

I don't understand this word 'fake'.

[USCH]

make a copy of with the intent to deceive = "fake"

That aircraft was purchased by another entity and is not undergoing a restoration to fly.

[Bodhi]

I don't understand this word 'fake'.

I don't either.  Almost all warbirds flying today would be considered fakes if people really knew the limited amount of original material used to rebuild them.  It is the nature of the beast. 

Use a word like replica to describe a new build.  It is more descriptive and is less abrasive.  Fake implies that people are trying to "pull one over" on the public.  That is not the case.
