I always thought the Spitfire was prettier than the Hurricane and the Hawker Typhoon prettier than both.
I agree but to me the most timeless and beautiful fighter of that era was the P-51.
Just as the Ford GT-40 is timeless. When a design is right it is right forever.
I had a friend who was an airplane mechanic in Europe in WW2. I suggested the P51 was the greatest plane in that conflict and he said he liked the Spitfire. He felt it to be the greatest single engine prop designed.
Tossup between Typhoon and Tempest.
