The Lockheed L-1011 is ugly. I'm not saying it doesn't fly well or that it wasn't/isn't a good plane. I just think it looks ugly. :-/


Aircraft, like cars have a face...some are more appealing than others and some are downright strange. I've heard engineers say "if it looks right it is right" which is totally subjective but I think the L-1011 has a much better "face" than the Douglas aircraft.

Even though the A380 is a wonder of aviation, I would never want it due to the fact that it's got an "ugly face" imo.

If CS did an Airbus I would hope for the A340, which is a very sleek looking aircraft to me.

Now that the 737 is getting close to release, CS may be ready to announce the next project.

Mark, I don't think I've seen any of your picks, if you don't mind...what would be your pick of aircraft for CS to do?
