August 28, 200421 yr Military: B-52, key symbol of US Cold War might, After 50 years, still going strong.Followed by: B-2, mostly because my grandpa worked on develping the paint for it.Honorable Mention: KC-10, Giant gas station in the sky. Nice looking plane.Civil: DC-10, Shame these beautiful aircraft arent in service as much as they used to, there should be more tri-engined planes.Followed by: 747-200, If it is good enough for the President of the United States, it must be a good aircraft.Honorable Mention: 707, Revolutionized air travel, plus it has been Air Force One before. Most Ugliest Military: A-10, That is one ugly hogFollowed by: Every non tanker KC-135 variant, they just are ugly the only accessory that belongs on that airframe is a refueling boom.

September 6, 200421 yr Hi,I like Concorde very much, very sleek, a superb shape!!Otherwise, I like the 330/340 series and the 767!!Cheers,Francois
September 7, 200421 yr Old Commercial: DC3 :(New Commercial: B737NG, wub'erOld Millitary: P51New Millitary: F16Old GA: C172, older versionNew GA: I'm stuck between the SR20/SR22 and the Beechcraft Bonanza A36.... Thats a tie there.
September 8, 200421 yr Turboprop : ATR 72-500Jets : A340 and 767 with the A320/30 series in a close secondMy favorite flight deck has got to be the 737NG... just too colorful to say no :)
September 8, 200421 yr I'd say 727, if it weren't for the Concorde. It really was in a class of its own.Ugliest: Shorts 360/330, no contest.
September 8, 200421 yr 757.....long sleek, slender body, with big oversized engines..........just like a super model...The 757 is the Super Model of the skies.
September 9, 200421 yr I like Tupolevs.Gavin Gavin Barbara Over 10 years here and AVSIM is still my favourite FS site :-)
September 9, 200421 yr I think the A340, with its long tapered wings is especially graceful. I don't think of the B777 as "beautiful" per say. It looks more like a brute at the gate, with those monster engines and agressive profile. Very impressive and a bit intimidating more than beautiful. I love the Connie and also think the Tupelov airliners are very sleek and sexy.
September 12, 200421 yr Lockheed L-749 radar nose constellation. For sure followed by the P-51 mustang. AND
September 13, 200421 yr Seems like the Concorde is the winner here, and i can only agree!Other of my favourites are the F-5, the F-104 and the Naboo fighter ;)// Daniel
September 14, 200421 yr I have to say the B757.Standing in front of it as one pushes pack - lovely picture.

September 17, 200421 yr I've always like the appearance of the Piper Cub. Probably because (to me) it symbolizes "flying for fun" like no other plane does - and it is a cute little airplane :-lol -
