Please place the name of the plane you would like to see produced in a buildable kit.
If you choose Sport, let me know.
Weather you care about retracts or not.
airfoil, flat bottom, symmetrical.
Top wing or Low wing.
We will narrow down this survey soon and take another final survey with all the planes that were suggested the most.

F6F Hellcat.
If you decide to kit a new sport airplane please make it easy to build and to fly and I'll build many of them.
what about Dehavillend mosquito which doesnt exist as kit and the arf seems weak, with two 46 or even better 60-90 engines.
there aren't many twins kit or arf.

I would love to see GM precision's Rainbow Runner .45 re kitted, and also the Pica Duellist 240 mkII re-kitted both with updated building techniques.

Scale for sure, I ditto the mosquito, also the DC3, Katana, Catalina, hurricane. All with retracts as needed and airfoils to suit. There are plenty of nice planes there to be kitted, what I have listed are just some of my favourites. I'd love to see more kits in the .90-1.40 size range too

Not being the brightest bulb in the box i didn't bother making up the templates for the Super Hots when I built mine, my bad!! Sorry. I voted for scale and would like to see a nice P-38 for the smaller engines. It could even be designed for the .25s.

"black box stuff" What he means is if the black boxes always survive the accident, why not build the whole airplane out of the black box stuff. By the way, they're international orange not black.

I would like to see the Ace 4-40 or 4-60 bipes again. They looked pretty sweet. I wish I had another Ace 4-40 bipe kit to build again.

On commercial jets, they have the 'black box' that records all imortant items, and is nearly indestructible. Hence the saying "why don't they make the whole plane out of that 'black box' stuff?
Make sense?

What ever plane you choose, make it something that there will be enough sales that you can support it beyond the initial production run. Making 100 kits and never any replacement parts.... will not make me happy. I speak of the plastic and manufactured products... support what ever you sell and do it for more than 15 minutes.

The Super Hots is the best all around sport flying machine out. I buy everyone I can get my hands on. I have scaled up the 60 size to a 1.08 size, great results. The Weeks Solution is #2 on my list for keeping around for the new generation of flyers!!!!
