Just goes to show we all have different taste's. To me the Victor is the
best looking, whether on the ground or in the air. Head on when it's sat on
the ground it just looks so puposeful.

As a photograph it can look ungainly. But as the full 3D object - whether
as a model or at an aircraft museum - you can appreciate its beauty.

Agreed. After the Vulcan, one of my favorite UKish aircraft designs. We
used to see them over here in the Pacific Northwest fairly often. Sigh...
