Must admit Legs, that Lanc is a good looking bird too.

Shacks, pub in Krefeld where you got a Steak breakfast after being on the piss all night in CK's, 2000.
Said shortly after approaching the dartboard to retrieve his darts, violently sneezing, which caused him to headbutt the wall & then twatting his head off a wall lamp when his head came back up. The cheating cunt...............

TSR2 and Avro Arrow. Even sat on the ground they looked like they were doing Mach 2.
Stupidity is like nuclear power.
It can be used for good or evil.
And you really don't want to get any on you.

Re: Most Beautiful Aircraft
I agree Spitfire and Hurricane
Also Concorde, Vulcan and Lancaster

However I've always thought that an F4 Phantom has certain pleasing to the eye qualities especially when taxying with both canopies up
We should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
The shame will always be with us.

Oldie: The Mosquito
Newbie: Tornado.....got in and on one once. You know exactly what this beast is for!In peace there's nothing so becomes a man as modest stillness and humility; but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger.
