If someone wanted to kill themselves, I saw an Albatross Db. V for sale some time back. I think that would get it done.

But if I'm going to dream, any of the F4U line of aircraft will do... preferebly the F4U-1C with 20mm cannons installed... hehe

Wait, an "I'd only try to ride/fly this if I had a terminal disease" type of deal?

Then in the event of my unfortunate illness, I will require a cowboy hat and a live Mark 39.

That, as an adventure tourism excursion, was how we should have fought GWOT.

The C90 is a nice airplane (I think the F model is the latest), but if I wanted to transport my family and luggage I would want at least a 200.

I'll take an MU-2 Marquise, with the latest upgraded engines. Yes, yes, I know all about the SFAR. Don't care. Fly it by the numbers, and it won't bite you.
