    Re: Which ONE aircraft would you take a flight in given one wish?

    On the original question (which I seem to have missed) there's a lengthy list of candidates.

    If it counts as an aircraft, a Space Shuttle flight would be WAY in front for me. If not, perhaps a Virgin Galactic 'space' flight .... or a passing UFO. Failing that, probably the vomit Comet.

    If we're restricting it to conventional aircraft ..... that'd take a LOT of thinking about to decide, because we're spoilt for excellent choices.

    I would've gone for the tech savvy eurofighter XD less flying, so i don't exactly die. and so unstable it's manoevurability (sp?) would be intense! XD that or a huey helicopter. I know it's not an aircraft? But still the classic huey XD or little bird. mhmm SO MUCH CHOICE? GAH

    If your wings are travelling faster than your fuselage, you're either crashing or you're in a helicopter... either way, it won't end well.....

    SR-71 for me as well I think - where? Anywhere really as you won't really be in one location long enough to discern it

    Either that or a manned version of the SR-72 (It's only a UCAV, but Mach 6 baby!)

    Buccaneer I can understand, had a chat with one guy who was GIB in a Buc when they were on operation talking about how he was behind one plane and they were so low they were below rooftop level, the plane infront hit its wing on the ground as they rolled to turn..

    F16, like the way it sucks vapour out of the air and across the ground on humid days when it throttles up on the ground.
