How Many think this is fake

Even for a 747SP, it still looks a little too short. You can tell by the flaps, but you can't see 'em:isadizzy:
 
The B747SP, A318 and B737-500/600 all look a bit cartoonish to me, with normal sized wings and little stubby fuselages, but I wouldn't describe any of them as ugly.

The A380 on the other hand...? Impressive, but it has a bigger forehead than me and that really isn't an attractive feature! :d
 
That was until the Airbus A-380 came along.

It is still better than the SP. I've seen so many thousands of aircraft at EAA and other airshows, and who knows how many pictures of planes online, and I have yet to see ANYTHING that is as ugly as the SP. :toilet:
 
Guess it's all about that old 'in the eye of the beholder' thing....

'cos I think it's a great looking bird:jump:

But then, what do i know - i think Pilatus Porter is also a stunner:mixedsmi:

Hey, if it ain't got afterburners....pfffft

The 747 SP is the single ugliest aircraft EVER conceived. Period.

Quite possibly! However there's always:

I'll agree that the A380 is an ugly beast, but the 747SP isn't that bad. Certainly not the ugliest ever.

I quite like the Beluga in a strange kind of way too. Not pretty, but in the same way as an A-10, its looks make it a more interesting aircraft!

There are some hideous contraptions from the inter-war period though. I'd take a world of everything mentioned in this thread than a lot of the stomach churning stuff they came up with back then!
 
Forget ugly or beautiful designs, here's a cute one. Not sure on range nor capacity estimates though.

That pic cannot be fake - loook at the reflection of the Tow Tug under the nose - that reflection would never have been painted by a painter on a FS aircraft, where the textures are painted to be used in flight...

and that FSX can reflect the tow tug THAT GOOD i do not believe.

Ah!
The MC.200 italian fighter is uglier i think.
