Troy Molitor Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Ok, I'm really not into jets all that much but I do like the looks of this one. scvrobeson, Gerhard, Martinnfb and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 In the air or on the tarmac? Airborne, possibly the TB-58 trainer Hustler or Concorde SST. On the ground or in the air, Mirage III/5 or DH Rapide. Most sinister on the ground: Handley Page Victor, Lockheed SR-71A, Junkers Stuka with or without a snake painted on it and the Fw 190 I saw at Hendon which just exuded a sort of evil. Most preposterous design feature the NLG on a Horton flying wing Tony Jack and Martinnfb 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confusionreigns178 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The Sukhoi Su-27..... an aircraft both hideous and beautiful, at the same time. Old school? The Soviet Mig-3. Great to look at, but a pretty poor fighter, from what I've read. Cheers. Chris. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davral64 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Every one of them from the 1903 Wright Flyer to today's Fat Amy are all magnificent works of art. Things like the little step on the strut of a Cessna 152 or 172, the cargo floor of a UH-1, the nose on view of a Rafael, the weird amalgam of shapes on a Mig-21, C-141s, Spads (ww1 and the A-1), a Maule... All of them get my soul singing. Now it's time to go flying in the RV. See you later! Jack, Martinnfb, Daywalker and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzieNick Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 As is sometimes said, “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” some of the nominee’s I see as Puposeful (looking at you F16) Iconic (747) Futuristic (SR71….. even now) but for me, beauty in an airframe balances elegance, proportion, lines, and the SOUND so that means Merlin powered Spitfire for a prop Concorde for Jets great thread Martinnfb, MikeC and Jack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnarg Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I like the Viggen. It just exudes power with no worries about practicality or range. Get up and defend the country NOW! The splinter or meadow scheme is my favorite of all time. And I am not even Swedish except by some ancestry from a very long time ago.
