Ooooh...I forgot about the F-5s (T-38s). I get to see those all the time as the astronauts fly them in and I work right in between two runways at an airport.

F-4 Phantom, from my old squadron, Marine Fighter Attack Squadron-531. But then, I may be a bit biased. ;)

OK, I think the other side has the best looking fighter, with some pretty slick acrobatics.

Isa bomber buddy.

Isa Fighter
 
Still the best looking to me in a scary kind of way. The first one I saw under guard was like witnessing an alien craft. I just wanted to reach out and touch it. It was just surreal. I got to cop a feel at the Air-force museum in O.H. last year. Felt like primed fiberglass.

I think he knows too much! It IS an alien craft, didn't you know? It's all a huge conspiracy/alien cover-up/Roswell/Area-51 thing. Lockheed copied an alien spacecraft and, in exchange, the government have been secretly working with them to clone a Hillary Clinton for their evil research. Just ask them, THEY will tell you...

Ready?

GO!

F104
 
This is the look I imagined for a fighter while scribling on a notebook in elementary schoolhttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1163577035.jpg

I had a classmate who's pop flew a 104.

as a kid, i dunked a lot of money in the arcades on that fullsize Afterburner thing...probably would have had a lot of money now , if i had dunked it in say.. MS , IBM or Intel shares...but yeah, a 12 year old's priorities differ

cashflyer 11-15-2006 05:24 AM

It's my first time seeing one, but I really like the looks of that Skyray.

Otherwise, my vote would go for the JAS-39 Gripen

I also really like the F-5

wasn't referring to the Squad. name... just the general look of the planes... Vandi One rules.. bleeding shame they are all grounded...not even a showcase crew left for non carrier flights (which would be a lot less maintenance heavy), i'de give my right and left pinky toe for a ride in a tomcat... hell, even if they told me it might breakup in mid air, and the Naces is disabled... i'de still jump to the occasion

They do have some sinister looking craft that do wild things in the air. I was waiting for someone to mention that.
