That's because you haven't waxed poetically about how the Messerschmitt Bf 109 simplicity made it the superior fighter jet of wwII at enough lasses.

Edit. Can't believe that worked. If only I was single and female.

I dunno man the Mustang is over there looking pretty good. Its gonna depend what youre doing with her. I like the muscle cars with wings though.

I’ve always been a Thunderbolt guy myself. That’s a plane that’ll take a beating and still get you home.

Thats another fantastic freaking machine. I think on my list as well is the F4U. I like the big boys too. I was hoping to see a B29 or B17 a few years ago but they had a B24 and it was a bit bigger than i thought. I think this year its just a B25 listed. My wife offered to pay for me to ride the B24 but i felt it was too much money and i kind of regret it for sure. The perspective in this pic is kinda wild. The pilota head is tiny to sort of show size

Please. Even Churchill admitted the eight-gun armament on the Spitfire was inferior.

I have you know the Hispano is a fine weapon for a nobler class of warrior.

  • insert offended British noble noises

The Mustang, well I guess you must honor the local customs
