    I love anything that flys, and am always interested in new, or old, obscure, or not so obscure aircraft. I'm particularly interested in what other people think! What tickles your fancy?

    I'll start off by saying one of my favorite airplanes is the Republic P-47D Razorback. Affectionately known as the "Jug"

    Too many choices.....Corsair, spitfire, P-38, P-47, and ofcourse, the Mustang. All had their own very unique aproach to the job at hand.

    Roger that, maybe what I should have made the title is what is the perfect hanger? You know... With all the good stuff, picking one plane is hard

    Soon....
    Depends on the type of flying I want to do.
    For travelling, Cessna Conquest II.
    For knocking around on late summer afternoons, Husky or Maule on amphibious floats.

    Once you fly your own rc aircraft you will stop having favorites, get into the world of r/c people. Go Fly!
