July 20, 200322 yr Tu-154 comes to mind for most beautiful airliner.F/A-18 Hornet for most beautiful jet aircraft overall and most beautiful military aircraft.Spitfire for most beautiful propellor driven aircraft.MH-53 for most beautiful helicopter.
July 21, 200322 yr In your opinion, what do you think is the most beautiful aircraft?I am going to say the Lockheed Constellation
July 21, 200322 yr Absolutely the 727, with its clean wings & high tail. As it climbs on take-off, to me it looks as if it's come to life, shaking off the shackles that have tied it to the ground as it escapes into its element, the sky :)Mike A.
July 21, 200322 yr I like the 727 a lot, looks like doing 600mph on the ground :).But, for me, the Boeing 707 IS the most beautiful bird !Etienne BouchardWeb AdministratorAircraft ModelVirtual][/font
July 23, 200322 yr Well, I have to go with the A340 as the most beautiful. With its graceful, tapering wings, it most reminds me of a bird in flight. I like the triple seven as well - but its more of a bull dog than a graceful raptor, more low slung with those hungry, monster turbofans. It embodies power; the A-340 embodies grace. Just my thoughts. Colin
July 27, 200322 yr Well, no one has yet to name this... DC-8. Especially the late in the model life when it got stretched really really long. Very beautiful aircraft to me.Same for the A340. I guess it's the balance of long fuse with 4 engines that attracts me.Takehiro NakamuraFFX/SGA
July 27, 200322 yr Difficult this....But I do love the A340 (preferrably in SAS colours)The big jumbo also is special to me.And most beautiful GA plane: Saab Safir - no doubt about it :-)
July 27, 200322 yr I'd have to say either the Lance air series, Cirrus', 20 series Lear. They look like there speeding when there sitting on the ramp.
