    I would love FlightLine to produce a 1600mm (or larger) P-40 and BF-109, and a 2000mm B-17 and B-25 would be flat out marvelous.

        I like the idea of a three piece wing for transportation and what pray tell actually had a three piece wing?

              A 1600mm Zero would be fantastic as well. One of my all-time favorite foam warbirds was the 1400mm FMS Zero. Man that bird flew like a dream.

                Agree. A nice Mossie with scale gear is a must.

                    Hmmm,

                    My thoughts, some probably not economically viable. From no particular maker, just my list, some might already exist.

                    1600 A6M2 or 5
                    1600 Frank or Hayate
                    Betty

                    1600 P-38, P-39, P-40
                    1600 F4U, F4F, F6F

                    1600 P-51 B/C
                    1600 P-47 Razorback

                    1600 Hawker Hurricane (with choices for m/g and cannon wings)
                    1600 Spitfire(two fuse cores, high back and low back. To which you could add single stage Merlin,aka MK2/5. Two stage Merlin aka MK8/9/11/16. Or Griffon. Wing planform was much the same through the line, though radiators changed, armament types, A, B, C and E. And tails early, through, 8/9 and Griffons, retractable tailwheels. I'd prefer the Griffons spin in the correct direction).
                    Mosquito B and FB types
                    Bristol Beaufighter
                    Avro Lancaster
                    Handley Page Halifax

                            I got a survey from MRC as to what FL airplane I want. Anyone else? I said a 1600mm P-51D and a Pond Racer.

                              I got the same thing. I said B-29 (2200mm+) and Mosquito (1600mm), and F-106 & XB-70 for the jets.

                                    I was recently made privy to what it is.

                                    It has wings, wheels, a cockpit and people will love it.

                                        Truth is I am teasing. I have no clue what is coming next. All I have heard is that production is picking up post COVID and we will all be happy again.
