I fancy one of those personalised 747s, like in the old TV ad for "Imperial Leather". Or one of those Gliders that has a part-time engine, to help it maintain height.

If by any chance I became very rich, one of the things I would do would be to buy a Hurricane and learn to fly it :)
Lifetime ambition, but I would have to be bloody rich

It would definitely be a Spitfire. Who could possibly resist a flight in one of these Charmers?

God m8, theres several Avro Vulcans still about. Theres 558, who the RAF help to maintain, and theres one at wellesbourn mountford aerodrome near stratford, where I did my flying schol. There both technically airworthy, but the civil aviation authority dont actually have and rules regarding ex-RAF nuclear v-bombers.....:E

It would have to be something aerobatic!
A sukhoi or an extra 300 course I'd have to get my pfa first I'd be more than happy with a modern glass sailplane
a duo discus or a ventus c but as I aint rich I'd better get me begging bowl out:(

The Gossamer Condor would be good, if I had the energy!

I'd like to fly the thing Lonnie Zamora saw take off from Socorro.

This really HAS got some performance but only the guys at Area 51 know exactly how good cos they got the remains from the other one at Roswell.

Mk VIII? That's an interesting choice. Not many of them around IIRC.
