Best aircraft to work on
Since we've heard about the WORST aircraft to work on, in a recent thread, how about the BEST?
My engineer friends all seem to like the 172 and the Beaver. Any others? |
172 and beaver? What about A340-300/600 or B747-400
Airbus wins every time!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Fokker 50 (with the exception of the elevator/rudder tension regulators)
|
767-200/300 the queen of the skies.no job a major problem.
|
Sadly not many around any more but I'd vote for the Lockeed L1011 Tristar:ok:
Because it was a challenge:cool: |
For me the boeing 757 beautifully engineered and a looker as well.
|
British F4M Phantom, with the big dirty Speys, luuuverly !
|
ATP. Just for the masses of Overtime it generated.;)
Oh yes, and for the opportunity to make up names to fit the letters. EG. Another Technical Problem, Avros Taking the Piss.:E |
L1011 - no doubt a real challenge. i realised how BMS 3-11 fluid tasted when uplifting inside the misting HSC in a transit aircraft.
my vote to B737NG. small size / fast WAC / no need for work step. |
The best aircraft, without doubt, be it regional, longhaul, piston, jet, pax or freighter, is the one that just flew over the fence, outbound :ok:
|
Going back to the original post in this thread, I think you will find a beaver is hard to beat :E
The Doc |
just like the doc
i love beaver too..but not of the aircraft variety. |
Its got to be the beast, a B52 can lose a couple, ten feet of tail and still fly. F406 wasn't bad either.
|
quite simply the L1011.
|
Anything made by Airfix
