Reference the notion of the PAC 750 XL as a bush plane, flying in RTMM country:

Now that would be interesting..I live about hours drive from the PAC factory.

The low wing design is because its derived from the PAC Cresco which in turn was derived from the Fletcher ..which dates back to the 1950s. The Fletcher was designed by John Thorp (ie Piper Cherokee, Thorp T-18 (note bent wing)).

Deane Baunton has made a FSX/FS9 Fletcher and a Turbo Fletcher and is working on a Cresco which is a bit like a 750XL, only smaller

I'm more than a little chuffed over the idea seeing this cab done in a modern format.

Here's a bit of an airshow demo of the aircraft:

Nanchang CJ-6. The Chinese haven't offered much in the creation of aircraft. However, the CJ-6 is a modified Yak 18. And they produced +/- 3,000 of them (includes all variants). That's a pretty good model run! Plus, they even used a Chinese 9 cylinder radial (Zhoutzhou HS6A). Probably the best, if not only way, to represent Chinese aviation.
 
It would be great to see this series of models redone for FSX. Original modeler could even release them in a couple of payware packages, land planes in one and floaties in another, nudge, wink :mixedsmi:. I still fly them occasionally even after all this time. The radials have that great bush plane look to them.

One of my favorites, that always seems to be the last to be done, is the Heinkel He-100

It was a very impressive plane that was over looked.

It would be a very good addation to FSX. Just my option.

I totally agree about the He-100... I could make the same statement about the Fw-187 and Ta-154 as well...

and then there's one of my favorite biplanes- the Avia B-534- I'd love to see a nice new model of that...

I would love to see the Heinkel 112B. It saw operational service with several air forces and had striking looks with its rear-vision canopy and elliptically shaped gull wings.
Otherwise any interwar fighter is welcome!
