My first choice off the top of my head would have to be a Mosquito FB.VI simply because of it's rarity, beauty, and reputation, but if I couldn't have a Mossie I'd happily settle for an SNJ-5 or an AT-6D; Texan's are a ball to fly and they're reasonably affordable too...

P-47 would be my first choice, either razorback or bubble canopy. But the FW-190D is also a beautiful plane.

This has always been a tough decision for me to narrow it down to only one aircraft. But I think it would awesome to own a Hawker Typhoon!

A B-17C, of course.
If I could get get John Garfield, Gig Young, Harry Carey Sr.
and John Ridgley* back from the dead to crew it, that would
be cool, too.

I truly am fortunate, I have already have the plane I would choose. An AD5 Skyraider.
If I were to add another it would be a Tigercat.

An F-15,......
........the Northop Reporter type. that is.
And if a non-production type was allowed, an XF-11, or maybe a Spiteful.

I would like a Northrop Nomad (export version of A-17A). It's rare, good-looking, relatively simple and easy to maintain, not too thirsty, has room for a friend or two, and docile enough that there's a chance of not killing myself in it. Mine would be painted in yellow and black RCAF target tug stripes.

I'll take a Ju-87 STUKA.
I'd wanna turn that siren on and buzz those kids running up and down the roads with that G(*&D*(&%^ BASS Music Blasting and give them something really neat to listen too.
