Re: The Ugly aircraft topic
With my statement about A-10s, I was merely trying to tease my old friend Roel (Warthog64).
It is all a matter about taste, so let's stop discussing and just enjoy the pictures (with or without A-10s)

The one that beats them all
The Concorde was a Anglo French collaboration. Thank God for the British because if the French had made it by themselves they would have come up with something extremely ugly like they always do.

Re: The Ugly aircraft topic
Thanks Ernesto, this is the best proof of my point. French -> equals -> ugly . Even the registration says so.
