This is just to say thanks so much for all your discussion and votes over the past week, it's been great to read your comments.
It's been incredible to see the Hunter come back in this poll.
Originally the Lightning was a good fifty votes ahead, then suddenly, having consulted Pprune, we saw an enormous surge in votes for the Hunter, leaving it 54 votes ahead of the Lightning.
Perhaps the biggest fight left now is now for third place, with the Phantom, Tornado and Harrier all slugging it out.
We've been surprised by the lack of votes for the Gloster Meteor - thought this would pick up some votes by virtue of being the allies' first operational jet fighter? Obviously outclassed by Mig15 and F86 Sabre in Korea, but should that count against it?
We're going to run the poll until September 7th, when we will release the final results, so please do get your vote cast if you haven't already, by visiting:

Once again, thanks for all your comments.
