This is GREAT! There certainly ARE some uglies. My vote goes to the Whitley, but it is very close. Too bad about that PZL 'monstrosity' as Bernie puts it - it certainly LOOKS like it came out of the 30s / 40s time frame; except for the powerplant of course.

Ugly you say? Here's a couple that come to mind.

the ME 323 powered glider, looks more like a bug than an aircraft. And who can forget the Westland P-12, simply gorgeous I say.

How about the Fairey Barracuda.
It was a British carrier-borne torpedo and dive bomber.

Back in the Thirties, there was an RN two seater biplane named the Blackburn Blackburn. Seriously! And it was "utilitarian". I'm working on my euphanism skills. the Westland Walrus was another beauty.

Hi Bernard. Just to prove she'd struggle to win any beauty contest, here she is.

Oh, and I'm glad to hear you practising the euphemism; I used to play that at school. But the teachers told me I'd go blind if I didn't stop.

(Sorry, I blame hanging around with Jeff, he's a bad influence)
