What models would you like to see made in the future ???

I would like to see the Grumman Goose in a 4’ and 7’ model almost ready to fly....

That would be fun a choice for sure Hovernorth . Welcome to HobbySquawk! Are you a balsa flyer mostly?

As a huge fan of golden age and classic aircraft, there are certainly a few I'd like to see.
Golden Age racers: geebee Z, travel aire mystery s, laird super solution, howard dga3, wendell williams,dehavilland comet.
For the classics: aeronca 7ac champ, waco cabins (ykc or yks), luscombe, cessna 120/140, taylorcraft bc12d, great lakes trainer.
and for good measure, a pitts s1 that would use a 3c 2200.

Well, in fairness, we're still flying the B-52. I'm 58 years old. My dad was working on B-52s for the Air Force when I was born. Granted, we've retired the older versions, but it's still overall the same basic design.

Certainly, and both are still aircraft well suited for their missions. The B-52 is still scheduled to fly until the 2045 timeframe, and I wouldn't be surprised if a few make it to the 100 year mark. It is just a bit ironic that all these years later, the same planes from the same country are still probing our borders and being greeted in similar kind ;). The C-130, Chinook, Cobra, and C-5 are all getting to a similar age as well, and certainly still holding their own!

Very cool stuff nonetheless :Cool:

A couple more Bear intercepts from the Air Force side. Hoping to see both of these from Freewing soon! ~50 years between the photos, and we're still intercepting the same Bears.

Here's a couple Navy birds escorting a Bear over the Nimitz.
Pic from my 76 Med cruise book.
1MC announces "Launch the Alert 5". Off go the F-4's in full AB until they intercept the Bear.
F-4 flown by VF-74 "Bedevilers" and the EA-6B flown by VAQ-130 "Zappers"
The USA aircraft always flew between the Russian bomber and the ship so that the photos that were being taken by the USSR of our ship had our planes in them.;)

Yeah, that's true, but I don't think anyone is going to repaint their AF Phantom in gray. Most of these pics are with Navy birds. I liked this one as it had 2 Phantoms in the pic. :)

I would love to see FLRC do a Tu-95 Bear!

Those of you with Navy versions of your F-4 can even fly formation. :)

Except those are Air Force Phantoms. ;)

The Soviet Union did love their counter-rotating props, including using them to excellent advantage on the Kamov helicopters.

[DR. Joy]

I built one of these, but, would love a better looking production version. It would be easy to do with a contrarotating outrunner set up. I know it will never happen, but, I can dream. The first one flew great, but, is not the best scale rendition. I am probably going to build another with a different lighter technique. This is the perfect model for RC. It has no torque issues. It has trike gear. The wing is large and it has lots of character. One of my favorites.

There's a few Beavers out there; but how about that original Northern bush plane, the Noordyn Norseman....An addition to the floatplane option...

[rifleman_btx]

Absolutely

[ICM]

I know its been done by others, but Flightline/Freewing just seem to do it better. I'd love to see them come out with some 1450-1600mm warbirds ( Updated P51, P47, Corsair, Hellcat,Bf109, Fw190, Zero etc) to accompany their 1600 Spitfire and P38.

[crxmanpat]

Only if it's a twin 80mm. ;)

[wolpertinger]

Ok so looking at this I see an ....80mm F86 , 1600mm P38 and is that a picture of a 80/90mm F22 by Freewing? ;):Cool:
