X planes, Luftwaffe jets, ME 163 would be awesome {real cheater holes}, same for the Huckenbien, Saab stuff{ Drakken, Tunnan etc} Mig-17,21,25, a Horten would be great too.

ME-262 with a single engine{no seriously, I have looked into modding the fuse to hold the engine, seems like it could be done with a weird angle cut pipe and a more tapered bottom aft fuselage} I think it could be done and not look too goofy.

Anything weird, obsolete, experimental. If I see another new kit for an F-15,16,18 I will puke[:'(]

Love em but they are way overdone, especially when there is soo many potentially neat planes to be put into a kit.

Really. Back in the old days there seemed to be more obscure and interesting planes being done. But we sure dident have the kits as nice as they are today.

LOL, ain't it the truth...

I guess that's one casualty of the DF era being behind us--there sure was a lot more variety. Now it's so cookie-cutter.

I love military jets BUT Please NO MORE F-16's, F-15's and Vietnam era planes!
All great planes but I've seen enough!
How about more unusal like the YF-23! (OK, so I've said that one before!)
The Russians made some cool planes as well like the Mig 37(concet plane) and Mig 1.42 that would both be cool to see in an ARF form!
Now were talking!
I do like sport jets as well. I love the looks of my old Sport Shark and it would be cool to have it double sized in an ARF form.

Knights of the Air used to make one YEARS ago. I've always liked the airplane being that I'm a huge Blue Angels nut.

F-35, it should make one helluva flying model, specially the Navy version with the bigger wing.

The first time my dad took me to see the Blue Angels, they were flying the F11.

How about a B-1B for the 7-8 pound turbines
OR:

P-59 Airacomet ( Not very pretty, but it was our first jet. It ought to fly like a trainer)

I really like the looks of the new Lockheed/Korean T-50...it's a T-38 meets an F-16. I also like to see an F-5E and the JSF...don't care which version. Civilian aircraft don't interest me at all.

OOOOOOHHHHH!!! BIG F-5 would be nice. Here's an oddball, how about an EA-6B. [8D] I would also like to see some more of the Saab stuff. Maybe a 1/6 scale Viggen?
