I couldn't agree more that the Spitfire- especially from the Mark XIV on - is a beautiful looking bird. But I was sort of counting on you of all people to support my first choice, the Mc-202.Sigh!

I prefer the look of the P-51B/C myself. Then its a toss up between the Corsair and Hellcat. But a sputtering Spitfire? Nope can't support that.

It is a virtual tie for me between the Mustang and the Spitfire.

You guys will probably think I'm crazy but the way I break the tie is to vote for the Mustang on the ground, where it has an edge over the Spitfire's u/c, and the Spitfire in the air, whose graceful wings give it the edge in flight appearance.

I know, I know... The Folgore has a certain appealing element of Italian design to it (much like I do ) -- it kinda makes me want to fire up an expensive Brasilia espresso maker or Olivetti typewriter... But c'mon: the Spitfire!





Hmmm... Maybe if the Italians spent less time on design and more on functionality... Nah, never happen...

The Folgore, the most elegant fighter of WWII.

Sorry Skunky but compared to the Spit the P51 look pregnant with that belly.
