| I was hoping response would be a little greater than it was, in over 9 month weve only had about 120 results Here are the results though, may as well end voting now.Supermarine Spitfire: 18 North American P-51: 15 Lockheed P-38: 13 De Havilland Mosquito: 10 Messerschmitt Bf-109: 7 Boeing B-17: 7 Boeing B-29: 6 Republic P-47: 6 Messerschmitt Me-262: 6 Douglas C-47: 5 Chance-Vought F4U: 5 Focke-Wulf Fw-190: 4 Focke-Wulf Ta-152: 3 Avro Lancaster: 3 Hawker Hurricane: 2 Northrop P-61: 1 Ilyushin IL-2: 1 Consolidated B-24: 1 Grumman F4F Wildcat: 1 Hawker Typhoon: 1 Junkers Ju-87: 1 Grumman F6F Hellcat: 1 I can safely say this whole thing was a failure!  |

| Okay well if that is the case, then why is the Lancaster the best. Why is it better than aircraft that were more capable and accomplished more?
