It's a short list for me.

Several Piper PA-28 Cherokees
Cessna 172
Cessna 182
Van's RV-7 (about 15-20 minutes of stick time, maybe. Didn't even log it.)
 
C-152
C-172 (160hp and 180hp)
PA-161
PA-180
PA-140 (150hp and 160hp)
PA-180R
PA-200R
Lancair Super ES

now out of medical.
 
Pretty short list for me:

C-152
C-172
C-177RG
C-182
C-182RG

PA28-180
PA28-181
PA-11

RV-8
RV-6A

I am fairly new at this flying thing, so my list is short:

Archer III
Warrior III
a few different older 172s
180HP Arrow
200HP Arrow II
B33 Debonair

Definitely most of my time in Pipers including training. I own a piece of the Arrow II I fly these days. The Debonair seemed like a really sweet ride (1 test flight). The Cessnas seemed boring, but easy to fly (and SLOW).

Get a Diamond DA40 and you will no longer need to keep trying out all these different airplanes to find the best.

I don't care who ya are, that's funny right there! Nice one. :D

I've really just been damn fortunate to have had so many opportunities to fly so many cool planes, from 40 hp to 1,700 hp, and from hovering to almost 400 mph at FL260.

The DA-40 is actually one I would like to try out as a travelling plane.

plus an odd flight or two in a GROB 103 and a Blanik glider. I managed to stay up for more than 20 minutes in the Blanik after a 1200ft tow despite my efforts to kill all lift by stalling, steep turning and other various new guy maneuvers that should cause descent rather than climb.

Thats all I've got in the logs....

Arrow. That's it.

(Lie, but I can't compete with some of the other entries.)
 
Great lists, lots of variety and nice to see some military hardware sprinkled in.

And remember, even if you only have 1 plane on your list, you have flown more planes than 313.4 million of your fellow Americans, and roughly 7.1139 billion of the remaining humans on the planet.

Pilots, looking down on the rest of the world since 1903.

The only cool ones I've flown are a T28 (that was a long time ago though) a B25, and a King Air (Thanks Dave!)
 
Cessna 172N/S: made for a beginner like me.

Cessna 162 Skycatcher: fun little go kart

Zenith: don't remember what model, but it was "home made" and fun.

Edit: and a Diamond DA40 but I did not log as PIC. What a ride though.

P.S. I just realized that about 2 days ago it was one year since I got my private pilot certificate. Cool :D. Too bad I hardly ever flew :(

Man, my list is pitiful compared to a lot of these. Maybe it's not so bad for only 2+ years.

Remos GX

And I have stick time in a Bonanza...and I want one badly.
