Hi guys,

I'm all in favour for 1:35 aircraft kits! For two reasons that is.

First, finally the opportunity to accompany your aircraft with some high quality groundcrew and equipment like trucks, fuell tankers, tractors, 'follow me' jeeps,etc..

Second, a lot of aircraft 'lived' close to the front and are often seen with the vehicles we normally build.

I would very much like to see in 1:35 scale for the latter catagory;

P39 Airacobra, FW189 Uhu, FW190, Westland Scout, Lysander, Westland Wessex, Hawker Typhoon, Harrier/AV8, Bristol Belvedere, Gotha 244, Shturmovik and Bell 49G to name a few.

In the former catagory I would like;

Hawker Seahawk, Hawker (sea)Fury, Spitfire MK21, Chance Vought Crusader, Arado 234, English Electric Lightning, MDC A4M Skyhawk, Blackburn Bucanneer, Bristol Blenheim MK1, and De Haviland Hornet.

Sure I forgot some! ;-)

Haven't build aircraft for many, many moons, on account of their 'awkward' scale. For 1:48 is to small, and 1:32 just a little to 'big'. So I'm all in on this idea!

Cheers,
Alex
