Probably a PBY Catalina.

Hey, whaddya I need to be zipping around at 400+ MPH for? You try fitting a tent, a grill, the dog, a cooler, a keg, and half-a-dozen fishing rods into your P-51s, Corsairs, or 109s when you want to go on vacation though...
Why u need half dozen poles its just you

a Yak as my first choice, PBY if I wanted an "outdoors" plane, and the SBD for so me and my bud/wife could anywhere we wanted (I've always had an unhealthy obsession with the SBD).

You know what, I'd pick the PBY for an outdoors plane two. And I'd pick the TMB so I can load a whole bunch of stuff into the bomb bay. I'd fly it to the store, load my stuff in there and take off. It may be big enough to hold the tent, the grill, the keg, the cooler, the fishing rod, the tackle box, and the food into the bomb bay. I'd keep the dog in the bombadire position. After I removed the controls of course. Wouldn't want him dropping my beer on the way to the campsight :noid.

Hmm...id like to say the 190a5 (my favorite plane in game) but I think the P47D40 jug looks sexier....

A P38... saw one at an airshow in Sonoma county, Ca recently, along with a couple P51's, some Yaks, an A26, a P40, and a Sea Fury, and the 38 dominated the tarmac. I don't think there was a better looking or more graceful plane (both on the ground and in the sky) north of Chino.  ;) Everything about it is smooth and sleek. Looking at it head-on, though, it was menacing.


However, a very good case is being made for the PBY by a few of you.  :lol
