Thanks for that, Pat. That’s the company I was thinking of. Have you bought your neighbors out of their houses yet??? You’ll need that with that sort of ideas!
I think you’re right! At least I’ll need their garage when I finish that An-22!!!
1/200 scale 727-100. 1/200 scale DC8 51 and 61.
1/200 scale DC-9 10 and 50…
I wish Hasegawa made those. Of course you can cut the Hasegawa DC-9 40 and make it a 50 or 10 but it would be nice to have those out of the box.
Yes well. I would also like to see a good earley model of the Connie in either BOAC or QANTAS markings in 1/72.
BUT a 1/72 DHA Drover tri motor in RFDS markings would make my day.
I’d like to see a 1/48 Boeing 247! I’d like to do a civil aircraft as well as a C-73 in USAAC markings.
Hi Pat. Academy has the shuttle with the 747 in 1/144 (or was it 1/200?). they alwo have the shuttle in launch configuration in the same scale. I’m having a brain lapse right now…oh well, the kits are out there. - Ed 
I’ll go with the Convair 240/340/440/T-29/C-131 family. Or how about a 1/72 Lockheed Lodestar.
Ok, I know that it’s really a Science Fiction Subject, but I’d LOVE to see a decent kit of the Fireflash Mach 6 Atomic Airliner from the first episode of ‘Thunderbirds’

How about a Convair 990 in 1/144? Oh, heck, ANY Convair airliner in 1/144!!!
I have a set of North Central decals just waiting for a CV 580!
Did anybody ever make a 1/144 kit of the Antonov AN-225 Mryia?
Even better, did anyone make it with the Buran space shuttle riding on it?
I had made the comment earlier that I’d like to see some of the short haul aircraft brought up to 1/72 from 1/144 as they are small enough to be practical in that scale in injection form kits. If that were ever done, my wish list would go something like this:
BAC 1-11
Bae Jetstream 31 (new tool, not revamped old Airfix moldings)
Dornier 225 (Revell Germany had a military one a few years back, civil would be nice)
Bae 146
Yakovlev YAK-40 “Codling”
Fokker 100
Boeing 737
DeHavilland Canada Dash 7
I’d also like to see the old Esci 1/72 Fokker 27 given an upgrade and reissue,
I could say the same for Hobbycraft Canada’s 1/72 DeHaviland Dash 8
Upnorth, I do not believe that there is ANY kit of an An-225 much less the Buran.
Didn’t think so, but there’s never any telling if there might be some obscure Russian or Ukrainian made kit of it.
Did anybody ever make a decent Tupolev 134 or 154 in 1/144?
I do have a An-225/Buran display model that I got at the Antonov factory in Kiev…
Two Tu-154’s that I know of… There’s a Welsh models kit. Has vacuform fuselage and the rest is injection molded or white metal. The other is a Russian kit, by OKB-144. I have the OKB-144 Tu-104 and it’s crude. No Tu-134’s that I know of. There’s also a Welsh Models Tu-114 that I have. I always thought that was a beautiful airplane in the old Aeroflot colors.
There’s a 1/200 Tu-154 by … Tupolev… It’s quite accurate but has no landing gear.
Per some of the earlier posts, would also love to see both Ford Tri-motor and Boeing 247 in 1.48th.

Im Agree after build the Ju-52, just be patient its matter of time to see the Ford Trimotor boxed somewhere and thats it R.M.!Happy Modeling from San Luis Potosí , México…
I’d like to see an A380, and an A340 in 1/200. All there is out there is these snap fit, pre painted airliners in 1/200 scale. Hasegawa needs to step up to the plate. I know I can strip the titles off, and repaint, but that’s not as much fun as when you assemble every thing.
I bought the 1/200 A380 from Sky Marks in the Virgin Atlantic livery. It’s a nice airliner. I painted the engines. Painted the lips of the nacele, the exhaust cones, the fan blades, and a lot more to the engines, then painted and detailed the landing gear.
I sure would like to see a Convair 580 injection molded kit in any scale. The bigger the better. It’s always been my altime favorite.
Upnorth, there’s a 1/288 kit of Buran (with Energya booster)…
