A B-26. You could take a few friends up and go to different shows. Its rare enough to be noticed everywhere. And it has beautiful lines.

Assuming I already have two-seat Mustang (Catherine would not let me have all the fun by myself)... I probably wouldn't coose another fighter.

I like what Tim Savage has... a Beech 18. It would be an excellant want to go from airshow to airshow with family and friends. Of course mine would have to be in RCAF markings.

F4U-4 Corsair marked as a Naval Reserve aircraft at Olathe NAS (just an interesting scheme you'd never see). Ive just always had a thing for Corsairs. :)

Hmmm...not being selfish and going for a single seat.....maybe a Fw 200 Kondor , got to be one of the most elegant aircraft around.

At this point in time, I would take a Helldiver, probably a -5 as they have a much nicer cockpit layout than the earlier models.

A P-38 Lightning! It's been the warbird of my dreams since my childhood.

My next choice would be a B-25.
