The Spitfire was a great airplane but I liked the Hawker Typhoon as well.

The Typhoon was hot. I do love a Mosquito though.

Flying Hawker Hurricanes, the 303rd squadron claimed the largest number of aircraft shot down of the 66 Allied fighter squadrons engaged in the Battle of Britain, even though it joined the fray two months after the battle had begun.
