    You're blind, never did the Spitfire look dull, far from it.

    From an physical standpoint, the only advantage the Hurricane had over the Spit is that it gave its pilot a better view out of the cockpit.

    That's from a practical point of view, we are thinking of looks here.
    The Spitfire was the better looking.

    Yeah. I would agree with that. There was too much framing on the Hurricane.

    So, there's a mass agreement.

    the spit looks better in genaral, but yes, the cockpit of the hurricane was better............

    The entire Spit looked prettier than the Hurricane. The fuselage looked racier. The wings were thinner and sleak looking. And those elipitcal wings were absolutely gorgeous.

    it sure as hell does look sturdy, and yes, the wings of the spit were more attractive, and if you ask me, the spit Mk.V was just ugly.............

    The only Marks of Spit that should be considered ugly were the tropical versions. I know that the filters were essential but they spoiled the lines.

    You always have to look good when you're killing someone
    The Spitfire was better looking, end of story.
