Come on, The Valkyrie is just a few triangles stuck together. Its awesome but it sure isn't beautiful. A plane needs some curves to be beautiful, Like the Blackburn Buccaneer


And my favourite, the dehavilland Sea Vixen

I would rather see that plane in a different color than pink.

But beautiful indeed.

I love this photo of the sea vixen

You would think the asymmetric cockpit layout would make it look ugly, but I think it just adds to the uniqueness of the plane. She's like a super hot pirate chick with an eye patch lol. Reminds me of the Millennium Falcon too

That is pretty cool. I'm guessing the asymetrical cockpit was to allow better visability of the landing area during left handed carrier traffic patterns. Anyone here know for sure, or better yet flown one?
