A subreddit spawned from /r/weirdwheels with the same intent, only with planes! This sub is for documenting all those strange planes out there from prototype to production. All aircraft are allowed, including helicopters (despite the sub name).

Notice: This subreddit is not actively monitored, so the posts here are only a small subset of what exists on reddit.
