Best looking airliner?
I'm sure this has probably been asked before.
For me, it's the Vickers Super VC10, followed closely by the Boeing 727-200. Andy

What about the TU-144; (or is it TOO "indentical-twin"-ish? Or that SST Boeing was going to build in the 1960's? Or the "Sonic Cruiser" they were going to build until a few months ago?
