assuming you have one

I know most of you will go for something like Spitfire

For me it's a tossup between these two

No Stuka? I suppose a plane that flies at the ground with whistles on the wings is probably not the best idea for a model aircraft in fairness.

No they would have weighed the plane down too much.

One that doesn’t fall out the sky whilst I’m on it is fine by me.

The Airbus A380. Mainly because I worked at Airbus for a year during the time it was being developed.

It's an incredible feat of engineering to get something this vast and complex into the air.

I was quite upset when they announced they're going to stop making them.

I used to like the old planes with the engines at the back like a BAC 1-11 or Boeing 727.
Noisy, dirty, smoking at the back, chatting up the Dan Air girls on our way down to the Med with your mates.

I’ve always loved the Chinook helicopters. Occasionally we have one that flies low over our house. Bloody fantastic noise. Very distinctive.
