There are literally hundreds of extremely sophisticated and smartly designed Beautiful Airplanes of past and present in the world. But when it comes to naming the aircraft that can be truly called beautiful, there are only a few of them. The first question is what is the beauty of an aircraft? Well, the beauty for an aircraft is comprised of the symmetry among its components along with its coherent identity as well as the aircraft executing its own prominence among other aircraft. While there are only a few beautiful aeroplanes in the world, they still exist. Today we decided to pitch in our two cents on this topic. We decided to present our readers with a list of Top 10 most beautiful airplanes in the world. Concorde Supersonic Airliner By Eduard Marmet  The first name on our list is the Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde aircraft. This is a turbo power jet commercial airplane which could travel at supersonic speeds. The top speed offered by this beauty of an aircraft is measured to nearly Mach 2.04 while having onboard a maximum of 128 passengers. The aircraft flew for the first time back in 1969 and entered for its official commercial service back in 1976. Since then the aircraft served in the skies for nearly 27 years before it retired in 2003. Concorde Aircraft was jointly developed by the then Aérospatiale and BAC (British Aircraft Corporation). Only 20 aircrafts like this were manufactured in which two of these were lost in accidents. Concorde aircraft dimensions are as follows: length-96.50 ft, wingspan-59.70 ft and height-25.60 ft. It is interesting to note that this aircraft’s name is taken after the french word ‘concorde’ which means ‘agreement, harmony, union’. This is because this Beautiful Airplane perfectly symbolizes the harmonious co-operation between France and England during its making. Concord aircraft was capable of hosting a maximum of 128 passengers at one time. These 128 passengers were provided with luxuries such as onboard self serve bar and high quality service from highly trained employees. Top speed achieved by Concorde is around Mach 2.04 which is nearly 1350 mph. Concorde cruised to its top speed in merely two and half hours upon take off. Powering the concodre Beautiful Airplane was 4 turbo jet engines by Rolls Royce (yes, all four). Each engine generated 18000lb f thrust and together the whole set up generated 4400000 lbf of propulsion power.

The Lockheed Constellation or more commonly known by its nickname “Connie” was manufactured back in 1943 with many of its variant coming until 1858. The first one was the Lockheed Constellation while the last one was the Lockheed Super Constellation. All of these aircraft had a flight range of 5400 miles while flying at a speed of 340 mph while maintaining the altitude of 20000 feet. Lockheed Constellation is a four engine turbo jet which has a length of 57.42 feet and wing span of 95.75 feet (including itsiter wing). There were many different models of the Beautiful Airplanes that were developed including the L-049; L-749; L-10ening OL-5.

The aircraft is one of the best stealth aircraft in the world with an ingenious design making it appear as a pigeon on enemy radar. The jet has a speed limit of 3.5 Mach but its true abilities are still a mystery even to its own creators. The aircraft is one of the few fighter jets that can evade any missile fired at them by traveling even faster. Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a long-range, Mach 3+ strategic reconnaissance jet that was operated by the USAF Dassault Rafale The Dassault Rafael is a jet fighter jet that was manufactured in France by Dassault Aviation. It is a twin-engine aircraft that comes with canard delta wings and is a multirole fighter jet. The jet has been equipped with a wide array of air-to-air and air-to-land weapons in order to achieve air superiority. The jet design might make it seems like a thing of beauty, it happens to pack quite a punch for its enemies. The aircraft is also capable of carrying nuclear missiles. Rafael fighter jet is operated by Vickers VC10 The title of being the most beautiful jetliner with subsonic speeds goes to Vickers VC10 which is built in Great Britain. The aircraft is an elegant piece of aviation engineering that features sweeping lines all around it. The Beautiful Airplane also happens to be the only ever airliner in West to have presented a rear mounted gate along with four engine configuration. The aircraft entered in service back on April 1664 but was hardly a commercial success. As a result, the aircraft was taken off commercial service and the British Airways who made 54 of these Vickers VC10s retired them from service back in 1981.

Next on our list is also a world-renowned F-22 Raptor, a twin-engine and single-seat fighter jet for all weather stealth missions. The jet is their pride and joy of USAF which allowed USAF to have the air superiority in many of their war conflicts. The aircraft is also capable of carrying out not only ground attacks but nice also be used for electronic warfare as well as for reconnaissance missions. Another thing that the Lockheed Martin Corporation has created is F-22 Raptor which has a very graceful design with a single seat design. The aircraft was accepted into active service in December 2005 and it happens to be the most advanced … Continue reading Top 10 Most Beautiful Airplanes of past and present
