I like this. Not silly at all and nice to have a break from the seriousness:
1. Tornado GR1B (toting ant-ship missiles)
2. F-111E (in UH splendour)
3. F-14A
3b. MiG-31BM Foxhound
Sorry, I was struggling with just 3

Wot, no F5 Paddy??
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Re: What is your top 3 aircraft of all time
Not really a lover of 'killing machines', but it would have to be:-
1. Hawker Hunter. Beauty on wings.
2. F.4 Phantom. Beautifully ugly.
3 De Havilland Comet 4c in R.A.F. Transport Command colours. Utterly gorgeous.
3b. F.35 But I would have to be very very drunk, but SOMEONE'S got to like the damned thing, haven't they!!!!!!

Re: What is your top 3 aircraft of all time
Being a "Young 'un" I didn't get to witness some of the great aircraft you guys have been lucky to see!
As a kid, I LOVED the SR-71 Blackbird, so my list will be:
1) SR-71 Blackbird
2) Any Phantom (lucky to have seen the Greek ones at RIAT - never been happier!! )
3) Of course, the Tornado GR4 - what a beast, what a noise
There are many more I could add, but these would be my top 3 if I had to choose!

Re: What is your top 3 aircraft of all time
Not a great fan of UK mil aircraft , my allegiance lies across the Atlantic .
.But picking a top three has proved to be a little difficult.
No.3 F-105D/F/G Thunderchief George AFB 1979 A ramp full of these is enough to stir any ones soul
No 2 EC-121 Warning star, Midnight memories of two of these taxing in at Mildenhall after the pub closed.
No 1 F-106 Delta Dart Awesome Has always been love at first sight and sound since August 1979 .
Types that nearly made it F-14 Tomcat very hard to cast this one a side
The C-141 Starlifter a type that changed my entire aircraft interests
The C-124 Globemaster An aircraft i saw far to few of but remember with great affection.
