Lots of people say the Spitfire is the most beautiful aircraft ... but WHICH Spitfire model?
In the Spitfire family, I'm torn between a few of the Griffon powered ones: Mk XIV? Seafire Mk 17? Seafire Mk 47?

It HAD to be the slickest thing in the air! Covered in that much oil NOTHING would stick to it!

Status: offline 		I would have to vote for the WACO YMF-5. It has to be the sexiest bipe ever built.
Had the pleasure of flying in a new Super WACO YMF-5D a couple years ago and it is a sweet ride. Something great about flying in an open cockpit plane.

All the aircraft mentioned so far share a common feature: They are slick, smooth-skinned metal birds. My idea of beauty is a bit different.

I knew Conny, She was a show girl LOL!!

Seriously, I was able to see one at Dulles airport many years ago. Beeeeeee utiful airplane

Modern Era A=10 Warthog, FA-18C ,F-14 /F-15 Classic ERA, P-51 , P-47'', P-40 F-4U Corsair, B-25, B-17 spitfire, hawker hurricane, OH hell I like em all they are all unique and equally appealing in their own way

Yea, I agree, like women. About women, my old pappy use to say they are like boats, turn them upside down and they all pretty much look the same. Same with airplanes I guess, except the P-38. just sayin. wallace.tharp

Guy in the German Air Force in my R/C club, ARCS, flew Tornados, F-16s and the T-38. He just loved the Tallon and says it has about the truest feed-back of any jet aircraft he has flown, no surprises when it wants to stall, or sink, she tells you. She even tells you when it's going too fast. No wonder it has been the USAF jet trainer of choice for some 40 plus years!. NASA astronauts always flew them too. We must have had 70 0r 80 of them when I worked at "Willie," Williams AFB, AZ in 1968 thru 70. wallace.tharp
