You are all wrong. Icon personified.

It was said in jest, but my Grandfather told me that the P-47 was his favorite plane of the war because when ever they needed some help, those would show up and the Germans would go away.

I have that game, my dad and I used to play.

Terrible quality, picture of a picture but myself and the family in front of the U505 at the museum of science and industry.

You were all saying?

Those are iconic U.S. planes, yes.

There are others that are also iconic.

I played this game on an Apple IIe (with green monochrome monitor as pictured) when I was growing up in the mid 80's :D Haven't seen Stellar 7 in years

In reply to lastsnare:

I only know that game from the arcade as Battlezone.

In reply to ransom:

kind of an obscure game I guess (along with the other Apple II games of the era, Floppy, Zaxxon, Loderunner, Burgertime..)

I grew up with the full sized arcade version of Battlezone in my house. The proper one with the viewport you had to press your face into to play

If you wanted to get girls, you flew a P-51.

If you wanted to come back alive, you flew a p-47.

1988 Electric Aerostar - 65mph and 100 miles on a charge. We've come so far in 25 years...

In reply to Appleseed:

If you were a goddamn lunatic you flew a Corsair:
