F-4U, P-47, FW-190, B-25, UH-1, UH-60, A-10, F/B-111, B-1, F-86. I could go on and on. Anything with round engines does it for me.

If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

So many to choose from but mine to list just a few from top down would be Boeing B-17, Vought F4U Corsair, De Havilland Mosquito, and the General Dynamics F-111.... and on, and on, and on!

I'm with Mickey P-51, although I do have a soft spot for Warthogs.

F-4 Phantom II. It is the sexist piece of machinery I have ever seen.

As already mentioned, the F-4U Corsair. As a guy who grew up watching the heroic exploits of Pappy Boyington on TV, how could I choose any other from that era?
I also have a fondness for the A-10. That screaming whine of the twin engines is scary in and of it's self. Then there's the armament...
