Peter Hogstrom Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Hello All. How about some Swedish ''Heavy Metal'' I think that if Mr Nijhuis will pot a lot of work on a new build project I think it wold be a aircraft that are little different that you can buy as a ARF. Here are my suggestions of some not common but interesting aircraft. 1. Saab J21A .HERE 2. FFVS J22 .HERE 3. Saab S18 B18. HERE 4. Handley Page Hampden P5 .HERE will se what airccraft that will win but as I said I hope it will be something interesting and unusual.Edited By Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator on 04/12/2010 13:08:16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Would like to see one of the following Fairey Battler Airspeed Oxford Hawker Fury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin hawes Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 For a complete challenge based on size alone: 1 . Russian ANTONOV 225 - super heavy cargo jet with six engines - large enough to carry a space shuttle on its back. 2. Airbus A600ST Beluga - designed as a flying truck, carge being loaded through a lift up door at the front (carge door lifts up from the nose section) while the crew flight deck slots in underneath 3. Canadair - CL415 - The worlds only firefighting plane that is amphibious.

Lionel Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Hi, I enjoy the "warbird" theme and would like to see it continue with 70" + wingspans: 1. Mosquito, Mk VI 2. FW 190 - "butcher bird" 3. P40 - Warhawk The Mosquito is a classical British design in term of its sheer design elegance & the underlying "in your face in times of adversity" personality it represents. The fact that this can be made as a "club" twin (IC/electric) makes this even more compelling. Regards, Lionel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Williams 2 Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Hi All My choice would be :- All 120 size 1/. Tucano 2/. ME 109 3/. Hellcat Thanks and "Happy Flying for 2011" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kozmyk Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 +1 on the Mosquito Mk VI Fairey Barracuda would be interesting, though the retracts would be a challenge. Vultee Vengeance? Interesting wing shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
