lol, ya i know really

Oh God dude, DUCK FOR COVER!!!!!!!

But seriously, you can't ask that or a question where company x. vs. company y. An airplane is an airplane, no matter how you cut it. One isnt better than the other. There are a select few who have been able to fly a boeing aircraft or an airbus aircraft, and they may give their opinion, but in the end, its an airplane, and with training there is no better.

ya thats true, just curious what everone thinks

gomntwins · July 27th, 2004, 23:18

I like Piper.

BoeingBoy747 · July 27th, 2004, 23:19

you cant forget the little guys

MikeD · July 27th, 2004, 23:21

Grumman Ironworks.

Fairchild-Republic

SteveC · July 27th, 2004, 23:22

Beechcraft (Staggerwing)

gomntwins · July 27th, 2004, 23:26

As far as actual airliners though... my favorite is Ilyushin. Specifically the Il-62. They look pretty neat.

BoeingBoy747 · July 27th, 2004, 23:27

i think the new 7E7 is going to turn out pretty nice

Ecl!pse · July 27th, 2004, 23:28

only one i fly, a Diamond DA-20 C1.......its realllllly nice! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

CaptainMatt · July 28th, 2004, 00:00

Definitly Beechcraft and Lancair.. I love those Bonanzas and Legacys.

RiddlePilot · July 28th, 2004, 02:14

Mooney. Hands down.

SkyyAngel · July 28th, 2004, 02:23

Sure you can ask that question. It's like saying what car company is your favorite. Most people like a certain company's look or their handling or equipment, etc.

Me, I like Boeing.

MikeD · July 28th, 2004, 02:25

Convair

General Dynamics

project7 · July 28th, 2004, 02:50

Grob.

...I get sick of engine noise sometimes

I_Money · July 28th, 2004, 02:55

Umm, tough questions - which carries more alcohol per pax. - that is the one I vote for.

aloft · July 28th, 2004, 03:35

What's up with this question? Back to airliners.net, you!

Eh... fast plane, but cramped and the older they get the more they vibrate. Nice looking plane though.

I guess I'm going to lean towards Dessault Falcon.

My second would be Boeing.

Betabry · July 28th, 2004, 15:40

Lockheed

Tim · July 28th, 2004, 15:41

Gulfstream.
