How about a change,

 

Hawker Hind

Miles Mohawk

Bristol F2b

[P-A-W]

PT 17 .. I remember having a cox control line model of the pt17 back in about 1965 .. It is a very atractive model and not too common .. 75 inch span - 120 four stroke ?? how cool would that be .. a real head turner I think.

 

PSS Vulcan .. or maybe a vampire again 75 inch span ..

 

I like large models that fly gracefully ..

 

Cheers

DH Dragon Rapide

 

Fiat CR42 Falco

 

Avro Anson

 

Just stay between the wars and you can't go wrong!

[Nev]

I fancy a twin.

 

ME110

 

Grumman Goose

 

Beechcraft Twin Bonanza, or any light civilian twin if it’s going to split the vote.

[GONZO]

1/ Hall 'Bulldog' Racer. (been my favorite since I first saw it on the front of the 'Eagle Book of Model Aircraft')

Something a little smaller than the big one!

 

2/ The Polish P.Z.L. P.11 (Gull wings rule - OK!)

 

3/ HE 111 (As a concession to WW11 fans)

[Bravedan]

Trouble is, these "vote for" threads end up being lowest common denominator wins territory, so prepare for a 109 (yawn), or maybe yet another Spitfire.......etc.

 

There are a few planes I'd love to see modelled more frequently (or even at all), viz:-

 

1. Martin Marauder

 

 

 

2. De Havilland Dove

 

3.  Blackburn Beverley

 

 Oh well,................... 

 

 

[Gavin]

I'd vote for a twin.

A mossie, the DH Dragonfly or how about a Britten-Norman Islander?

[Chris Poulton]

I notice two gents have already voted for a nice civvy twin.  electric or glow (2 x .25).  In order of preference:

1. Beech D18 (pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease)

2. Piper Twin Comanche

3. Piper Twin Aztec

 

or any other classic civilian twin.  The beech can't be too hard for you.  Go for it.  Please. Please. Please. Please.

[Dusty]

This or

DH Mosquito.  70" Plus.

Hugh

1/ DH Devon/Dove

 

2/ Hornet Moth

3/ Swordfish would be nice actually!
