I'm really agree with Tomcatter...The F-14 is one of the most beautiful fighters...

Awesome pic Swedge! That's one of the best pics I've ever seen of the Valkyrie, except possibly another one I saw of the B-70 taking off in full blower. Way cool.
The B-70 is one of the prettiest planes I've ever seen. I'm still kinda partial to the 106 and the Tigershark.
Good pics of the Tornado too catisfit. I always liked its nickname "Baby F-111".
Beers and MiGs were made to be pounded!

Just for kicks here's the results of a similar poll taken on Air International's forum:

I always thought the Tornados "tails" were too fat making them Ugly!! i think they would have looked much better with twin smaller tails.. also i am a big fan of the F-106 as well... It just looks "right" and the F-104 is one of the coolest looking aircraft, matter of fact to me its the ONLY aircraft that looks BETTER with ext tanks attached!! the wing tip ones any ways.. makes it look powerful.. B-58 is anuther cool looking aircraft.. Mirage IV is cool looking too..

The F-14 Tomcat has always been my favorite aircraft, and it will continue to be so, I don't know what it is about it, but it just looks so pretty...
Second and third would be the F/A-18 Hornet and the F-16 Falcon.
Now I would have included the AH-64, but I'm not sure that counts.
Click pics to make them normal.

I've got a soft spot for it too! I'm building a 1/72 model of an MFG1 Tornado IDS right now, with plans for many more. I've already built an ODS Gr.1 and a ETPS one with the Raspberry Ripple scheme.
Do your homework, Tiger!

I had always thought the Boeing "Bird of Prey" technology demonstrator looked rather interesting, or at least unique.
To those who are interested, take a look at this link, there's a video of the aircraft in flight located there.

My all time favorites remain those two big twin tails: F-14 and F-15
