If you would pick one airliner as the most beautiful, which would it be?

I personally think the most beautiful aircraft of all is the Pink Delta 767-400ER (N845MH):

To my eyes, the most beautiful airliner of all time is the iconic Lockheed Super Constellation, model 1049.

Any JetBlue A320 works for me (I love JetBlue lol). But, as far as planes with unique liveries different from the rest of the fleet go, I do like the Continental 737-900 with the vintage livery. Saw it land at EWR once, I thought at first it was really an old plane. I wonder if it's still in service now that CO is United and all the planes now have the new United livery, at least all the ones I see when I drive past EWR.

I also like the Douglas DC-8-61 or -63. With their very long length, and relatively small tail, they almost resemble a train. Especially if you happen to drive thru a highway underpass while they happen to be taxiing over. The Airbus A340-600 is similar.....

I also like any airline that produces a 'heritage' livery. I like that retro AA 737 in the 'Astrojet' livery......

That Peter Max livery on one of Continental's 777s was badass, I saw it one time at Newark years ago on a family trip. I'll never forget that plane!

For me it'll always be the Concorde

[The Tram man]

Any retrojet aswell as the Concorde, Tu-134, Tu-154, Tu-204, Il-62, Il-86, Il-96, etc.

Hands down it is the Concorde and the Tupolev Tu-144. No jet in the world looks as good as they are.

Tupolev Tu-144

Ah the old Concordski

[SoSpectacular]

Never was much a fan of the Concorde, although they were pretty unique for what they could truly do, supersonic flight basically.

Bu I'll take my beloved wide-body commercial airliners any day of the week

[C40LFR]

Narrow Body: 757-300

Wide Body: MD-11

I think The Airbus A330 is probably the ugliest.

Hands down!! I will have to dig up my pictures. I had the honor of Flying "Wanala" from Aukland to Los Angeles.... By far my favorite flight to date. And nobody can top Qantas food and customer service!
