What is your guys favorite aircraft? Mine is the Me-110, a beautiful plane. PS-sorry If there is another thread like this, but my search had no results.
I also like the Bf-110 but ole Tante Ju is my favorite. She was actually an advanced design for her time.
WWII really moved aviation from the wood and fabric biplanes to the jet age in just 6 years. I have many favorites but over all German designs really pushed the limits for other nations to follow. Before the war started I read in old magizanes that France and Italy had the highest rated airforces and pilots. If I picked just one aircraft I would go with the Ta-152 since it looks like a weapon where as the the Spitfire looks too pretty to be a weapon in a war.
you better say the tank as your forum name speaks of it twin engine for me has to be the Ju 88G-6 though I do like the Mossie XXX single seater single engine ......... ? the TA 152H-1 is right up there, will have to think about it for a tad bit
Has been all of my life, the P-51D. It's just a purdy plane to me. The F4U Corsair is a close second.
Ta 152H? That's what my airmodelling fellows call The Power Glider With an Attitude! Right plane, wrong country, would look beautiful with a Red Star
seeing we are talking favourite aircraft and not which is the best.... I do have a strange liking for the Lockheed Hudson
The Spitfire is my favourite. Such a beautiful looking and sounding machine, it sends a shiver down my spine to hear the purr of a Merlin engine during flypasts at airshows.
P 39 Airacobra, there is something with that 37mm... As for pure aesthetic Mitshubishi Ki 46 Dinah and Me 262.
I hate to say it, but the C-47. A beauty of function. If you want combat planes, it would be the P51D, and B17G. And I have always had a fondness for the A-20.
