1/6 scale F-100D. BVM's is too expensive and Grumania's is too small for my taste. 1/6 would be 98" long. Maybe, even 1/5.5 would be better.

My first choice, F-101 Voodoo

Super sexy plane with a lot of paint scheme choices. Good size wing and conventional and simple retracts. Wide gear stance. Make it at least 105" for bifurcated P-180 or P-200

AND, make sure to consult with someone who can provide you with correct dokumentation so it looks like a 101. Now that would be an awesome plane

That tail looks like alot of engineering, not to mention the wings too. Cool jet though. And different!!!

I love its symmetry from above. Do you think it would have heat issues on tail frfom exhaust?
Scott

Another one I'd like to see is an F104 Starfighter, all composite ARF. I would love an F104 but I have no time to build!

I think the tail could be done just like on the F4 and it sits high enough to be out heat trouble.. The wing looks straight forward to me, make them split an inch or two outside the intakes. Large roomy fuselage. Would be great for twin engine as well. look how close the engines sit. Or single bifurb with minumum thrust loss.

No rotating gear to worry about. Straight up and down

There were a couple of ducted fan and turbine powered ones built in Canada Here a few years back. Didn't seem to have any problems with heat in the turbine powered versions.

F-101 Voo Doo. Or a Cessna T-37...


F-101 Voo Doo has a fairly simple gear compared to other projects... So does the Cessna

No one else has it... No One..

Yes, and they looked like they flew great. Just too smal IMO. A 1/7th scale would be 115" long. Just perfect

HI,

Mirage 2000 C et B
F14,
SU 27-34
Alpha jet

Looks good Eagle.
I really like LGM's design also !!

Eagle Driver, I see and talk to James almost twice a week. Anyway he asked me thesame question about a month ago. I don't think they are going to make anything smaller that's why all the new stuff they are producing now are a bit bigger than their counterpart. The customer voting should be interesting though.

David I like the 1/6 or maybe 1/5.5 F100 with all the accessories... I 'll see James this weekend maybe I can convince him !!!.

My first choice: Su-34

autorot: F-14 is already in the works. see their website. http://www.flyeaglejet.com/F14.html



More on the F-101 Voo Doo. http://www.photovault.com/Link/Milit...101Voodoo.html

I second the A-6 Intruder, must have the functional clam shell brakes on the wingtips though.

I would like a T-38. I would to see all these jets the same scale. I dont like having a for example a T-45 bigger than a F-18F because i cant get the same scale on the market.

David

A thud would be the cats meow for sure!! followed closely by a Su-27 such as described by IcePilot (aka Tor)

There seems to be a desire for large models, but do not overlook designs that can use 14-22 lbs turbines. There are a lot of great turbines in that size range (AMTMercury, Behotec, Graupner, Hawk, JetCatP60/70/80, JetCentral Bee,Rabbit,Falcon, PST600/800, Simjet, & others) that offer a big bang for the buck. This size jet can be less complicated, is price attractive, easier to transport, as well as being suitable for more flying sites.
Anyway, consider some of these planes:
F8 Crusader
A7 Corsair
Century Series
A4 Skyhawk
P59 Aircomet
F84 Series
Late WWII era jets
Any of the 50s-60s designs form the US, UK, Dassault, Soviet, etc.
Post WWII era, Korean era, and Vietnam era jets offer many schemes and models due to many different users. This means variety in finishing and not a line of look alikes.
Just some ffod for thought.

Hats off the the first company who can produce a scale version of this one. It has been done EDF, but I have not seen a turbine example yet

As a new jet pilot I would like to see the Revenge in a couple sizes. 14# and 30#. Similar sizes to Electra jet and Bandit/Flash.
Todd

F-90

I'm with you on that one Fritz... It is one mean looking aircraft. Paul Reese would have to do the landing gear though.

anyone make a 17-18 pound thrust class f-18?
