Was reading about the possible flyover tomorrow and was thinking about what I would like to see fly. So what is everyone's favorite? I'll go with a Folke Wulf 190 from WWII and F22 modern day.

Warthog /thread

We have 22's at my base and they really are badass. Stole the show at last year's airshow.

F-4 Phantom II

Not sure why. Probably because I was fascinated with them as a kid. Big, loud, fast

The Harrier Jet? Is that a thing? Those look super cool.

My adoration for the harrier comes from Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2!

My brother-in-law worked on them as a Marine and he said they kinda sucked IRL.

Had one at an airshow here a few years back. It was awesome. The sound echoing between the mountains was something I'll never forget. It damaged our runway though.

F-22 here my pop had a hand in that fricker and I still have the watch he willed me when the team got the contract.

Never seen a B-2 flyover but I'd imagine it would be pretty badass

SR-71's would take off from Kadena AFB in Okinawa refuel then kick it, never saw before or since something so big move so fast.

Vintage? The old school Fokker Dr. 1 triplane was a beast in its day. Mad props to the ME262 as well.

Semi modern? Always been partial to the F104 Starfighter. That thing looks like a missile with wings. Dangerous as hell to fly but faster than all get out.

For looks and capability:

B1-B Bomber- Badass and looks the part
A-10 Warthog- Nuff said
F-16 and V variant- Beautiful design, and highly capable in the right hands.

F16 reminds me of a single cab truck. Not for every situation but nimble and quick
