As you know, our pre-built/painted warbirds come few and far-between. With enough interest in a particular model, I can have batches of them done. The question becomes, then, what are the birds most people would like to get their hands on? I have, for example, a couple of Spits coming in because enough customers requested them several months ago.

You know, something where most of the work is done including glassing etc. but maybe leave it up to the owner to detail
and apply his own paint and graphics. Thanks for asking. I hope others chime in and want a p-47 razor also

A B model P-51 would be a great pick.

Status: offline 		If I wasn't already building a Yellow P-47 Razorback, I would have chosen the Jug for an ARF/ARC. That being said, I'm surprised that the P-40 hasn't been mentioned in a primered state. I love the look of the sharks teeth but they are way too common for my liking so I'd opt for something a bit more generic, myself. But, hey. That's just me.

A Corsair ARC would be most welcome....Having built two from kits, I swore off F4Us until an ARC is marketed..
Another would be the ME-109, scaled for a 40-50cc gasser..

Status: offline 		Guys I think some of you are missing the point of Shaun's post here.
He wants to know what existing warbirds we would want in arf form.
Yellow aircraft does not have a corsair or Fw-190.
You need to chose from P-40, P-47, Spitfire, Zero. ... etc. The prop
models from their site that they currently have in kit form. Am I right
here Shaun? Come on guys, vote for the P-47 Razor so i can get one LOL
I dont have any time to build!!!!!

No were not missing the point. I'd love to get a ARC Corsair from Yellow Aircraft.

Status: offline 		I'm with Ken .. would just LOVE to have another ZERO .. I had one of the Yellow "ARF" Zeros (so nice, it's actually insulting to call them ARFs!), alas lost last summer .. I have begged Charles for this (I know he needs to balance other priorities, e.g. jets), but figure another ping can't hurt!!!

Have the ARF Texan (100s of flts), and the P40 (a week or two from maiden). Really happy with them all!
