Best looking airplane in your log book.

Not this exact S2B, but one similar.

Who did you fly with at Warbird Adventures?

I honestly can't remember, it was 8 years ago. When I'm back from this trip, I'll check to see if I have anything. Russian accent though.

I realize it's a total hijack, but some day, some day, it will be Mine. Or not. I give you the very essence of aircraft beauty. Unfortunately minus the four high velocity 20mm cannon that were so horribly adept at ripping our forefathers to tiny little bloody pieces in defense of one of the most evil regimes ever to infest the earth. Hey, I don't have to be politically consistent here, do I?

Fantastic looking aircraft, love the FW-190! If and when you fly this, you win!!

I may have misunderstood you, but that's not an A-4 of any stripe. That's a Bae Hawk we bought and cleverly renamed. Welcome to the multi-national conglomerate world.

We did a lot more than just rename the Hawk. The Hawk was not ready to be a Carrier aircraft and it took quite some effort to overcome its issues as a Navy jet trainer. We should never have bought it if you ask me but we made that deal with the Brits that never happened.

I too am going to stick with the ole P-51D:

It's a phenomenal airplane that I wish I had been able to fly just a little bit more.

Best looking classic in my logbook....

Well it would be better if it had SP (52TFW) on the tail!

I always figured you were in Korea not Vietnam.

Stock photo. Mine was WW on the tail.

Is that Gunfighter? Did you fly with Reg?

 

[Ollie]

Is that Gunfighter? Did you fly with Reg?

No. This particular airplane bears the livery of "The Millie G" as do several other restored P-51Ds around the country. She's owned and flown by a local physician and I was lucky enough to get a little bit of stick time.

Shucks. . .I need to abstain from this thread. Most (if not all ) my logbook airplanes easily fall into the ugly category.

Is that Gunfighter? Did you fly with Reg?

Had the privilege to start-cart Gunfighter once, when they had a low battery. Must say that was one of the coolest things I've ever done.

Best looking airplane in my book has to be this. Not that it is much of an airplane, but it still looks good.

^^^ That L-16 is gorgeous. It must have been a blast to fly.

Is it N551W over in Tulsa?

Like beauty, ugly is in the eye of the beholder. If you love it, then it's all good.

 

[Ollie]

Is it N551W over in Tulsa?

It used to be based in Tulsa with two others that bore the same livery but different nose art. It's now based in OKC with the owner's FM-2.

 

[liveupthere]

One of these...

Do I have to pick just one?

Not the actual one, cannot find a pic of it.
