How's about you reuse some of that B-24 engineering and make a Dash-7? A bird that can take of in less than 1200ft at and land in as little as 800ft weighing more that 45,000lbs deserves to be made right? A true STOL aircraft, that's not some stripped down over powered Cub! I'm a little biased as I'm one of the lucky few that still gets to fly this tough old bird. Freewing would be the only company I'd trust to get it done right!​​​​​​​

There was an Airline called, "Air Pacific" that flew these between Bakersfield and San Francisco. They were brand new at the time. We got stuck with those guys right after the airline deregulation. Basically all the larger jets all pulled out of Bakersfield, IE United, and Hughes Air-west. Nice to see one of those, I later heard they didn't do to good because of the four engines. More fuel and more maintenance. But it was a heck of a plane for sure, and would make a nice model for sure.

I would still like to see Motion and freewing bring a F100 to the table. I know the flex is nearly out but that wouldn't stop other manufactures releasing the same plane in a different size. 80mm for me please.
Re Launch and update the eurofighter please, new style lightweight 80- 90mm class.
More commercial airliners please, prop or jet. There are some real classics that need to be explored in the RC market especially in the foam ready to fly sector.
More Micro foamies too please. Sub 500mm with gyro would be great.

New to the forums...but have been in RC for a while. Some of you might have listened to me on the allthingsthatfly podcast back in the day. Anyway, I will always above all else wish for a 1700mm Flightline Sea Fury...big and detailed and with a 12S high power option. Also a 1700mm Zero. a 1700mm Dauntless would have to be purchased immediately as well.
However, with the newer stuff....the first company to release a new B-21 would be cool.
Also, how about some 1700mm Reno Racers? Czech Mate? (obviously) :-)
I would also HAVE to buy a 1700mm DH88 Comet. (that goes without saying)
