Hi!

Concorde. Always and forever, truly, madly, deeply. (Which I don't really consider a „classic“ as it is more or less of the same vintage as the Citation I fly at work...)

And the ones that I would really want to fly in, at least once:

- Demoiselle (the only one from the really old ones that could tempt me)
- Hurricane (although I hate everything connected with the two world wars, but the Hurricane is simply a marvellous piece of engineering)
- Super Constellation (somewhere in Florida one can still get type-rated on one, maybe one day when I win the lottery...)
- Hawker Seahawk, the cutest little jet flighter (together with the Gnat maybe) ever built. Again, if I ever win the lottery, I might consider building a replica, but with a modern (quieter) engine, otherwise they won't let me fly with it.

Happy landings,
max
