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...

Hi Cortomalteseit,
I think Dino, after his absolutely astounding '326, has also a '339 in his future projects.....

Hi mvg3d,
yes, i'm a Dino follower since his first works, and I check everyday his blog in search of good news

cheers

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.

**vora** · October 3rd, 2015, 03:46

These are the ones which I follow closely:

RealAir Duke B60 V2 for P3D
AH Piper Aztec
Aerosoft Pilatus Porter
IDS Socata Trinidad

**MustangL2W** · October 3rd, 2015, 06:03

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.

**P-38Fan** · October 3rd, 2015, 07:19

If anything an accusimmed F4U Corsair would be awesome

I try to avoid day-of-release purchases. But that one will be an exception.

***jankees*** · October 3rd, 2015, 08:05

a P-61 Black Widow would be nice..

what happened to this one, Warchild?

**DaveSHQ** · October 3rd, 2015, 08:23

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.

***jankees*** · October 3rd, 2015, 08:40

no, this was a sim-outhouse project that stalled after a while

**odourboy** · October 3rd, 2015, 09:03

One I'm anticipating is SSW's PA-200 "Tornado", which i just found out is going to be tacpacked!

Now, Please!

**Butcherbird17** · October 3rd, 2015, 18:28

some of the planes i was thinking of were mentioned by some of you. i didn't mean this thread as a rant, just one of those times i sat down and was thinking "wouldn't it be cool if i could have it NOW." i have to admit though, i do have a pretty fair sim hangar already. probably tiny compared to some of you guys though.

***Dangerousdave26*** · October 4th, 2015, 11:40

Rob had problems exporting it as the model got too big.

Frustration set in and he got burned out trying to fix it.

We might still see it someday.

Let's hope the Black Widow will be picked up again. The accompanying thread alone was brilliant!

I second the remark about the Accusim F4U Corsair.

But there are quite a few aircraft that have been overlooked a bit. I'd buy a DH-C 4 Caribou, a Fairchild C-123k Provider or a Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar on the spot. I have a soft spot for these old work horses.

Cheers,
Mark

Looks like Carenado's Reims F406 Caravan II is coming very soon (guessing a couple weeks)...

Regarding the P-61...

Dave was correct in that I was having huge issues with compiling the model. Between that and the amount of time I had been working on it I had to take a break from the project. In the interim I progressed to using Max for my modeling, and I also managed to overcome the exporting high-poly models issue. Using Max I have also got the hang of doing cool stuff like shadow baking. For the last 2+ years I have been working on a project for EagleSoft that is getting close to completion. I also managed to get a promotion to a supervisory position at work, the downside is that it resulted in my having to put in a lot of overtime that eats into my time to model anything.

That said, I occasionally fiddle with the P-61. The model has been transferred to Max, and I have no export issues. In order to render out shadows I will have to re-map a significant amount of the interior parts and that means I will also have to rework pretty much all of the interior textures.

I have too much time & effort in the project to let it die, and I also owe it to the others that were involved to finish the job. I am thinking that this could end up being sort of my master work in terms of modeling, and frankly it could be quite a while before I call it done.
