I've alwaysa been surprised at how few of the "post-war" models are done these days. In real life, most of them failed because the power promised was never available. Well, in our models, we don't have that problem - overpowering is normally easy and quite typical.
How about a XP-54 Swoose Goose or an XP-56 interceptor. I'm currently gathering information to build an electric version of the V-173 flying pancake. Probably something in the 60-80" size with lipoly packs.
Lots of these post-war designs still exist at the Smithsonian and other facilities. Showing up with one of them would certainly cure you of the "me too" blues!
