Honestly I like these threads...
I like all aircraft and the outhouse members have really neat ideas :ernaehrung004: and I always come away with two or three I have never heard of

Thanks
 
Bjoern would have loved this thread.... I miss 'im already

as easily as he could have ignored these kinds of threads, folks could have just as easily ignored his little rants...kind of a two way street there no?

cantankerous cuss that he is, cheers mate


..now - wheres that Norseman we were talking about start of summer eh? ...
 
With the intensity and detail of Aeroplane Heaven's Lockheed release and the lovely Milton Shupe Hudson, it has brought back my desire for a couple more beauty's of that era. My Interest was initially fueled by Alabeo's release of the classic 195 and the D-17 Staggerwing models. Jankees took these releases and painted them up in the schemes they wore when "Pressed" into service of their Country. (Hoping he does the same for the Lockheed 10 as the UC-36A) Thinking along that same train of thought...How about a
UC-64A Noorduyn Norsemen? - A seriously overlooked Bush Plane. The Norseman was "Drafted" by the USAAF in WWII. Do a repaint of the Glenn Miller Transport, the Silver one with the red tail and wing tips like is displayed at the AF Museum in Dayton and a Great looking "Bush" version in tribute to its roots.

How about a really nicely detailed version of the Cessna UC-78 "Bamboo Bomber?" Something that allows you to understand and experience a WWII Multi-Trainer. Another very versatile aircraft that was widely used in WWII. So many Air Corps pilots flew this type before moving on to fly the bombers and transports that allowed the War to be won! O.D. and Silver USAAF Twin Trainer repaints the reflect their different training groups, and maybe a modern vintage scheme to balance the offering.

I'd love to see a UC-78 (aka Cessna Crane) too. My dad earned his chops as an airframe mechanic servicing them at an RCAF BCATP unit stationed at Brandon, Manitoba, during the war before being posted overseas to a squadron of Lancasters. The Crane's a great little airplane and good looking, too. I always wanted to take a hop in the one owned by the CWH while I was a member there years ago, but never got around to it...

Tom Wood has, or had, a Do-335 in the works. I would like some more late-WWII German aircraft like an up-to-date Go-229 or a Bachem Natter.
 
These are the ones which I follow closely:

RealAir Duke B60 V2 for P3D
AH Piper Aztec
Aerosoft Pilatus Porter
IDS Socata Trinidad
 
Aerosoft teased with a Ju52 a couple years ago that I really had my heart set on....

I can only imagine how many projects were started and given up on because of one reason or another.
Probably double for the amount of repaints given in on for bad paintkits or other reasons.
 
Jankees

Is that the Abacus model? It's the only one available that i'm aware of. I thought of doing repaints for it, but unsure how many people have it.
