    Too many to list now.
    Flown in the Dehavilland Otter many times. Amazing aircraft. Especially with the 1000hp aluminum turbine he had in it. :eek: that thing would take off in way less than a 100 yards.

    Actually got to see the maiden fright of Glacier Lady. It was dug up from the ice in Greenland, brought back in pieces, & reassembled. Beautiful plane to watch fly. There was also a 3 Thunderbolts that flew over for the air show. My father was in anti-aircraft in WW-2 & was in D-Day & Battle of the Bulge. He shot down one of those ME 262's. If you love aircraft & get a chance to go to Wright Patterson Base in Dayton, OH, They have most every type of war plane from WW-1 thru today's.

    F-14 FTW! I think that is mostly because Top Gun came out when I was young and I thought it was one of the coolest movies ever. I still enjoy it despite the all the cheezeballness in the movie.

    Favorite aircraft? The F-14D. Most beautiful aircraft? F4U Corsair with the Spitfire a close second. Favorite sound? P-51. It gives me chills every time. My first choice to own? A fully armed Apache AH Mk-1 (the British version)

    My friend has one of these. Let me fly it the other day. I've done aerobatic flying before... But never knew a plane could change direction as fast as this thing does. Very fun to fly. I know what I want for Christmas.

    Cobra gunship hands down. Saved our asses plenty of times. Plus the always roll with a huey outfitted with mini guns. Such a lethal combo.
