OK - a B52 bomber would be a classic McGregor theory X type of personality, heavily into the status level of Maslow's Hierachy of Needs. It would say if I don't get what I want I will drop a very large neutron bomb on you.
A search and rescue helicopter would be the archetypal theory Y personality, into the full on self actualisation level of the hierarchy, it would say "excuse me but you appear to be in trouble and how may I help you overcome your difficulties"?
I would be the pilot capable of flying either type, depending on how much "motivating" you required.

"The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a four-seat, single-engine, high-wing airplane. More Cessna 172s have been built than any other aircraft and it is also probably the most popular flight training aircraft in the world.
The first production models were delivered in 1957 and it is still in production in 2006; more than 35,000 have been built. The Skyhawk's main competitors have been the popular Piper Cherokee, the Beechcraft Musketeer and Grumman Cheetah (both no longer in production), and, more recently, the Diamond Aircraft DA40 Star and the Symphony SA-160.
Early 172s looked almost identical to the 170, with the same straight aft fuselage and tall gear legs, but later versions incorporated revised landing gear, a lowered rear deck, and an aft window. Cessna advertised this added rear visibility as "Omnivision". The final structural development, in the mid-1960s, was the sweptback tail still used today. The airframe has remained almost unchanged since then, with updates to avionics and engines including (most recently) the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit. Production ended in the mid-1980s, but was resumed in 1996 with the 160 hp (120 kW) Cessna 172R and 180 hp (135 kW) Cessna 172SP.
The older Skyhawks were delivered with a 145 horsepower (110 kW) engine, while later versions were equipped with engines up to 180 horsepower (135 kW), though 150 or 160 hp (110 or 120 kW) is more common. A rare modification of engines allowed the installation of a 220 hp Franklin engine."
I'm sorry what did you question have to do with airplanes?

The Boeing type would a heavy, solid type, reliable and straighforward, but not able to dart about in sudden situations.
The Macdonald-Douglas type would be less solid, but able to quickly manouver, and dodge tricky situations.
The Piper Cub type would be a lighter type, younger, and more forgiving, reliable, and fun to be around
The Avro Arrow would be extremely fast, and be able to hang in there for a long time, with the ablility to rise to extreme heights if needed. However, this type would be looked at jealously by all around and be the subject of every ploy to eliminate its superiority at any cost.
