Favorite fictional flying machine

Haven’t seen this posted up so- what is your favorite fictional flying machine/aircraft from any movie or TV series?

I've always liked the starships from Star Wars. The A-Wing and speeder bike has always been my favorites.

Do spacecraft count? My all-time favorite is the original USS Enterprise, NCC-1701; no other spacecraft, before or since, looks like it.

The original Battlestar Galactica was always cool to me.

I always thought Sky Captain should've held out for the P-38 model. Two fuselages....think of all the toys Dex could hide in there!!!
