That came out wrong. I love the mossie, the mission, the engines. It just looks awful from any angle except the rear and 7 and 5 o clock looking forward.

Its the props. They are too far forward

Take some pride in your good-looking collabs with the Continental Europeans!

Concorde, Gazelle, A380.

Otherwise we will remind you of the Jaguar!

I think it’s already quite clear @Victork2 is an utterly deranged philistine when it comes to aircraft aesthetics:

Look at the mad lumpy brutality on that thing. Only a madman could find beauty in it! (Or an engineer)

@Victork2 Are you sure you’re going to put Defiant and Swordfish ahead of the Hawker Sea Fury? The fastest, most powerful and meanest looking single cylinder-engined prop plane ever.
