IamNotDavid, I'll not deny that Geoffrey de Havilland managed to make the 'recycled bedsheets' style of aircraft aesthetically pleasing eventually - that wasn't the question though: did anyone (other than German shipbuilders) ever make an aircraft out of aluminium that was as ugly as a SE5a?

I have obviously stumbled into a thread populated by people with no taste whatsoever.

The SE5a is a beautiful aircraft. A blend of simple lines, brute power (We're talking 1917 here remember!) and plain functionality.

The De Havilland DH-89A Dragon Rapide (or similar) is a work of art!

I'm not into windmills or trains but as far as they go they look functional and not out of place in their period.

The Spitfire is also a beautiful aircaft so is the 109!

Cheers!
