As title says.

Dakka jet be my fav.

**Peregrine**

None of the above:

**Ailaros**

I voted for the tau flier, but that's because I watched last exile a few months ago. It's nice to know that GW can rip off GOOD anime for their model lines, and not just gundams.

That said, the best flier I've seen, in specific, has been a helldrake that was painted up to look like a flying stain-glass cathedral of slaanesh. Usually the model looks dumb, but damn...

**Sasori**

The Scythes are my favorite. They really give me that Alien-invasion feeling.

**Shadox**

I've got problems with nearly all of the above. If you ignore the Avenger, the Forgeworld fliers are all better across the board with my favorites being the Hell Blade and the Tigershark.

Indeed, they make me think of those alien fighters from Independence Day.

Although i like the heldrake for its bestial aggressive look, all sharp angles and such, i have to say all the flyers have something about them that i like.

**Zuul**

I'm a fan of the razorwing.

**Jimsolo**

Necrons. As a Space Marines player, I wish I got a cool looking flyer. (Okay, there's the Thunderhawk. But I mean one I can afford without selling a kidney!

)

**Eldercaveman**

I like the Stormraven and proud

Seconded!

**phatonic**

The ork flyers ofcourse!

**Kain**

The stormraven may be an ugly flying brick, but it's my BLUD REHVEN's ugly flying brick!

**pizzaguardian**

where is the dark eldar flyer?

**Iranna**

The Eldar Crimson Hunter is the smexiest flyer going obviously

Iranna.

**DakkaHammer**

Forgeworld stuff like the marauder and the barricuda.

But of the regular stuff i like the razorwing

**shade1313**

In the main Citadel plastic releases, Razorwing. But the Valkyrie isn't too far behind.

Honestly, of the two, I vastly prefer the aesthetics of the Hemlock Wraithfighter. When I build my Nightshades, I definitely need to find a solution to those surfaces that jut out just behind and above the cockpit. Ugh.

**Trondheim**

Nephilim gets my vote in this

**dementedwombat**

Tau Barracuda. For me it's the perfect mix of "cool alien technology" and "this would actually fly" (which is important to me since I'm almost done with my Aerospace Engineering degree).

Plus the giant nose mounted cannon reminds me of the A-10.

Same here. It's not pretty but I like it in a Warthog way. I used to work those planes though so I'm partial.

I do really love the Crimson Hunter. Tempted to actually sneak a second one which is unusual for me but I'll see if I like using the one first. Love the model though

**Vivster**

Manta!

**Valkyrie**

**Insurgency Walker**

I went with The dakka jet, but I like the Valk and the the dark Eldar fighter too.

**danpieri**

I like the Vulture myself

**ansacs**

Well it is definitely one of the forgeworld models but picking one is way too difficult;

Spoiler:

**nonowho**

I'm a fan of almost all sleek-looking elder vehicles. and imo their fliers are the best of them all in terms of looks.

**Shas'O Dorian**

Razorwings.

They just look so sleek & murderous. The perfect hunter-killers of the skies.

**Grey Templar**

The Avenger

**d3m01iti0n**

Thunderhawk all day. Caestus Assault Ram is a close second. Stormraven looks decent with a Chapterhouse kit.

**PresidentOfAsia**

**Centurion Cajun**

Vendetta all the way. There's just something very Terminator-esque in my mind to that "real world" looking VTOL unloading into aliens. The three Lascannons don't hurt things either.
