![]() | Sorry GH but the Brabazon is just sooooooooo damn ugly The Buffalo was like the plucky Tommy - uncouth, rough around the edges, often up against superior forces, but fought gallently to the end.SD - no, I don't think GH intended only WW2 aircraft but I'm not much of a fan of post-war aircraft.

![]() ![]() | If any aircraft then I'd have to go for the Tornado GR1. Beautiful aircraft. Just heard they're gonna be replaced by the Eurofighter as the main aircraft to protect Britains skies. Don't know how reliable the source is though. |
