Some glaring omissions but this is always going to be a very subjective list.
But why put a Spacecraft/Helo/Airship in an Aeroplane list.
At first glance these were missing in action:
Vulcan, Fokker D3, B17, Sopwith Camel to name but a few.

B-17 was there it was #45
But I agree they did leave off quite a few that were techincal marvels.
