    I still would like a nice twin Mustang F or P-82.




    +1. I'd love to see a 1450-1600 FL P-51D. Perfect size - easy to see when flying, big enough to handle some wind yet still fits wings on in most mid-size sedans, suvs and cuvs with rear seats folded down. I know virtually all Foamy Brands offer a P-51 (because they sell) but only FMS offers this size and none match the scale, detail and quality of FL.

          I would go for a1600 mm B model Mustang. They fly a bit better than the D model.

            I agree with you all on the Mustangs and Corsairs. They are my FAVORITES but everyone makes them. In place of the Mustang or Corsair, how about a Freewing or FMS 1600mm SBD Dauntless or TBF Avenger with folding wings?

              So Cws, are you suggesting that if you wanted a nice P-51, that you couldn't find a Mustang, (out of the ones available in the market offered right now) that would meet with your expectations of a nice Mustang? At last count I thought there were about 8 or 9 new P-51 RC models that were added to our selection just last year. This was added to the existing 50 or 60 different ones already available. I bought the new little park flyer, well because it was a park flyer, NOT BECAUSE IT WAS A MUSTANG!!! I know they're many others available, I wanted to send a little business Motions way.

              Well the Mustang Market isn't something I would lope into blindly. The reason is simply this, If I were to ever buy a really nice Mustang, it's not going to be made out of foam. Get it? My point, is if you're a P-51 Mustang Lover, and want a really nice one there are already to many other nicer options available, that a Foam model simply cannot surpass under any circumstances. FMS, (who makes really nice models) already has a 1400 & a 1700mm Mustang. You mean to tell me one of those wont do? it's got to be a 1600mm P-51?

              SO with this I'll just say that if we get a 1600mm FL P-51, (Which I think is going to happen for sure pretty soon). The folks that always buy everything offered by Flightline will jump out and buy it for sure, as always. I also think it would be a nice addition to the Flightline line up. I can respect this.

              But when and an a big IF I ever go for another mustang it will almost certainly be something like this.....https://www.horizonhobby.com/product...cc-arf-han4770 not a foamy. Fact is there is an awfully lot of RC flyers that think just like me.

              Best Regards
              Woody

                I'd love some of those, funny how they have been almost forgotten by the Manufacturers. Mustangs, we need more mustangs!! Ra Ra RA. LOL

                Fact is I hope all this buzz about a S-3 Viking isn't just a bunch of rumors. I would love to see that, but not until after a OV-10. Hasn't it been long enough??

                  Yes indeed, I agree.

                  I have been pushing the S-3 for a while now and would LOVE to see that one come along. I bet that one would be a very scale and fun plane to fly.

                              Just goes to show there are as many opinions on wants and desires as there are aircraft both past and present. ;)
                              Yea I guess, but I'm the only one that counts. LOL

                                        Hey Aros, this pole is flawed. There was no mention of a Lockheed Super Constellation. In Woody's mind, this is the next home run model. Motion should ignore this at their own peril. The fat Lady/Fat man is singing to you here.

                                          Oh there's been lots of talk about Connie in the Airliners thread. That one is a MUST IMO.
