Hawker is an ugly machine come to think of it...

[Der_Fischmeister]

Bad Fischmeister ....I know but I can live with it ...:ok:

maybe we wanna talk about the nicest Approaches or the best Inflight Meal or any other Stuff no-one cares......uh I liked the "How much tip you ever got "Discussion" ..Sounds like "who has the biggest One....!":ugh:


@Uberwang :Did U had a bad Snooze last night or what !!!:suspect:

[south coast]

There is/used to be a jet parked up in Geneva with 4 engines at the back, I am sure it belongs to some African despot who hasn't paid fees for it and it is now impounded, but although it is old technology, it does look quite cool.

No idea what it is though.

[what next]

No idea what it is though.

Lockheed JetStar

[BizJetJockey]

Uberwang, how can you say the old beauty that is the Hawker, is an ugly bird? She's a lovely looking gal! You want ugly, I give you the Citation Bravo or what about the Embraer Legacy?:yuk:

[WSUshox]

Premier and Eclipse :=

Citation X and Hawker 4000:D

[Rob's Dad]

Blimey sunstroke set in quick there BJJ! Hawker pretty - didn't someone once say they'd rather be seen getting out the back of a sheep!!!!:}

[His dudeness]

Ugly Long Range aircraft: Falcon 900

WTF? Beautiful she is...

Gorgeous Long Range Aircraft: Gulfstream 650

Yeah, well, allright....you got it right there. ONCE.

Ugly Short/Medium Range Aircraft: Gulfstream 150

That thing ain´t that bad, but the winner is cat has to be the sexiest airplane made to this very day: the Falcon 50!!!

Gorgeous Short/Medium Range Aircraft: Citation X

Georgeous? Looks like a pregnant pig! Out of proportion. Dead ugly. Uuch!

The Challenger 300 is a really sexy twin engined jet.

BTW the only Cessna that won´t hurt your eyes is the Sovereign.

[Time Traveller]

In the short/medium range category -

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new winner..

The SJ30 :D

I mean; you would, wouldn't you?

[G-SPOTs Lost]

As long as the gears up!

And as for the C750

http://www.winglet-technology.com/photos-large/10.jpg

[jetopa]

Although I never really liked flying the Citation X (apart from the fact that it's the fastest - but that gets boring, too), I always found it to be a good-looker.

I saw a F2000LX with winglets recently. They sure make the airplane look better than ever.

[Fossy]

guys, don't forget the lears :ok:

[Twin2040]

good looking: Any new Lear - Lockheed Jetstar - G3, 4 and 5 - old Falcons - C750 - H800.

bad looking: Premier1 - H400 - any straight wing Cessna.

Anyway - I left Biz, now on MD80..............

[what next]

Hello!

I don't really care, as long as I look at it from the inside (and get paid for being there) :)

But one of the nicest bizjets I ever saw, well, rather a "corporate aircraft" was this (not my photograph):

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1412/565439500_a576d4d5e0.jpg

And contrary to almost everybody else, if don't like the look of the much tick praised "stick insect" Gulfstreams. Totally unproportionate...

[ab33t]

Ugley = Sabre liner

[what next]

Another nice one (McDonnell's answer to the JetStar) was this one:

The only prototype ever built is currently for sale!

Boeing 747SP Website - View Photo (http://www.747sp.com/viewphoto.asp?1037)

It is a bizjet :):)

Mutt

[Denti]

Well, the SP looks to me like a plane that was driven into a wall, simply too short, another plane with the same problem is the A318.

Anyway beautiful: G550, ugly: BBJ (and i still love the 737, but its an ugly plane).

[7xXx]

Guys, hw do you insert pics ?

[FL470]

The ugliest jet ever built is the Premier 1

Jet doesn't mean anything since most aircrafts are now fitted with turbofans...
The Italian thing might be ugly, it's still one of the most efficient existing designs. When the "jet" version will show up numbers will speak for themselves.

[Silvio Pettirossi]

I like bizjets, for me there are no really ugly ones, some are just not as good looking as the others...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder....:\

But this one, like all Falcons, is really gorgeous IMO

http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/9/9/3/1462399.jpg

[421dog]

These look better just sitting on the ground than anything built since.
Noise restrictions be damned, I say!!http://i.pbase.com/o5/20/35420/1/7673125.KtpVMLZO.7673125.sua020640828700.jpg

[Request FL510]

Most Gorgeous Jet ---the one I am currently flying.

Ugliest jet ---anyone I am NOT currently flying.

Must say though, the 7X probably looks nice one airborne, but on the ground, it certainly looks ungainly.

I agree on Falcon 50. What about the Lear 45? If too long for some-one's liking, try the Lear 40 for size and proportions.

It's like what is the best car? One that is parked in my garage and fully paid for...

[PLovett]

Just showing my age but I have always thought the Falcon 100 was the sexiest thing in the air.

http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/6/3/0/1628036.jpg

[421dog]

Hmm, my picture of a Lear 23 seems to have disappeared....

[L'Argonauta]

Ugly: Challenger 600, it remind me the old Opel Ascona...


Gorgeous: Falcon 900, the Rocket Pocket Plane!!!!!

[HS125]

LOVE IT!!!

Okay vastly outdated now, but a very innovative design!

[uberwang]

Oh sorry, I was sleeping... Fischmeister drove me to snooze.. The rest of you woke me up:D

G550 :ok:

Premier:ugh:

[Arkwright]

Ugly Jet: Any bizjet in the new NJE paint scheme......

Gorgeous Jet: Most bizjets NOT in the new NJE paint scheme.......

Why did Norman Foster design his scheme to look like the aircraft are bank robbers???

Maybe this was his tongue-in-cheek laugh at how much money NJE paid him????? :}

Controversial??? Moi???

[Alex HH]

Falcon 10 is a real beauty. I believe Dassault still operate one, but completely refitted with glass cockpit. Shame they don't still build them.

Ugliest ever for me is the Citation Bravo. I'm also in the camp that thinks Gulfstreams are ugly.

[what next]

Ugliest ever for me is the Citation Bravo.

Try googling for "JetPod" before insulting one of "my" aeroplanes ;) But we won't see many of those because the inventor perished together with the prototype.

[merlinxx]

HS06, ask anyone who flew it, or drooled over it as a sprog/sprogette:E

[x933]

I don't think there's a single angle you could make this look good from. It's got triangular windows for chrissakes.

http://www.aviationbusinessindex.net/aircraftPictures/model/161.jpg

[S.F.L.Y]

This one also have triangular windows, and I like it :8

[hetrotrolleydolly]

That's not a Bizjet...... that's a kebab !!

[INNflight]

Not a real bizjet but a regional, still I think Legacies are pretty neat aswell :hmm:

All about the point of view of course...

This has an awesome scheme...... but why on earth does a plumbing supply company own such an awesome machine :):)

[dan1165]

Of course its a GLEX !!!!!! :}

[Jetset41]

Ugliest jet has to be the Premier 1/2, man that shouldn't fly just is damn pig ugly.

The sweetest looking I think is the Learjet 40, as above all going fo rheavy metal,expensive isn't always the best looking.

For the ultimate bizjet, gentlemen remember the Concorde, nothing can beat that baby, even ifthe french did have a hand in it.

Winner - hands down. Gorgeous aircraft!

[BitterFlex]

Looking at the shape of the aircraft, its a close call between the G550 and the GLX. Looking at the cockpit, my G550 win hands down:)

[OFBSLF]

and what about this G650 scheme?
Love the plane, but hate that paint scheme.

[Highglide]

Beautiflul jet: Premier 1A

Ugliest jets: Cessna CJ and all Bravos and Ultras

The prem's not a bad looker - a bit dumpy in places, but not as ugly as

[galaxy flyer]

Mutt

Reference Kohler's GLEX, they are a profitable, privately-held (perhaps the original family) company with four main lines of business, not just plumbing. If they want a pretty bizjet, who are we to complain?

GF

[x933]

SpecialBrew wins. An aircraft only it's designer would love.

[Privatejetbroker]

I agree with Turning Finals...

G-SHEF looks damn sexy up close :8:8:8:8:8:8:8:8

Our GL5000 G-TSLS (vp-cau) looks even sexier :8:8:8:8:8

[Bizjetguy]

Gorgeous Jet: pays my bill
Ugly Jet: doesn´t

I think this could be easily ranked as "the worse of both worlds"... :E
