Poll: Awesome Or Ugly? The Boeing 307 Stratoliner (Plus CoolPix)

Designed in the late 1930's, this is one of only 10 Boeing 307 Stratoliners built

 The Boeing 307 Stratoliner, the first pressurized commercial transport, would have been a much bigger success if World War II hadn't begun at pretty much the same time as the aircraft was introduced. The Stratoliner was at the cutting edge of aviation design in 1940 but by the end of the war it was quickly being left behind by bigger and faster aircraft like the Lockheed Constellation. However, the Straoliner's older sister, the B-17, became a key player in winning the war and proved without any doubt that this basic aircraft design was extremely capable.

 Only 10 Stratoliners were built, and the only one remaining is on display at the National Air and Space Museum Udvar-Hazy facility. The recent AirPigz NASM MeetUp gave me my first opportunity to see the Stratoliner up close, and of course it was a real treat to be in her presence. I've always been a big fan of this airplane so it's no surprise that I've voted her to be 'awesome' in the poll below... but what do you think?
