There are so-o-o many, it's easier to pick the duds. Sure the Spitfire and Mustang are at the pinical of the era and type. But look at the lines and abilities of the B1-B, or the 50's \space age\ looks of the B-58 Hustler. The F9-F Panther had those classic lines, but of a different era. So many sizes, types and uses how can you pick just one? I sure can't. How can there be only ONE? There are so-o-o many, it's easier to pick the duds.

The short lived Beech Starship also deserves an honorable mention, but the hands down prettiest civilian plane has got to be any later version of the LH Connie. Used to be one being restored at the downtown KC airport that I saw every time when I flew in on charters. Hope they found the funds to finish her off. Thing looked like it was in motion even though it was on the ground. On military its gotta be the late WWII P-51s but it just noses out the DH Mosquito for me.
