Prettiest P-51 I ever saw was "Miss America". Flew out of Wiley Post Airport in OKC. Beautiful machine and you always knew when it was coming due to the big 4 - bladed prop.

The machine that I enjoyed flying the most was the Grumman F11F Tiger.Absolutely the best handling machine, but not nearly the best for what it was designed to do...not enough fuel without drop tanks, and then it was a dog. The one that I least enjoyed was the SNB (sorta like the Beach 18, but several generations earlier) I couldn`t even taxi that beast without ground looping it. Tricycles rule!

747-400. Gods Airplane. It's nice to be over powered and always the big kid on the block.
Caution!!! wake turb? Not for me..

Speed is life at one time!!
Now stability is better

Convair 440 was the most fun I ever had, but I love the 757. Power and sexy looks win the day.

I liked the DC 3 but I was too new to appreciate what I was flying.

The A319/320 was the most comfortable but it just does too much for you to be a real pilot's aircraft. Sure is nice for those all nighters, though. Easiest PCs I ever took.

Ok, so I have a choice of flying simulators of the A320, 737-300, 747-400, 757, and 777 (maybe 767, not sure). Of those airplanes, which one is your favorite to fly. I think the 777 would be awesome, as would the 747. But I really like the 757, and I think the 737 would be the easiest to fly.

Opinions anyone?
