wamwig Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) I'm guessing we maybe weren't supposed to see the H2S radome as the workbench post now appears to be missing from the Airfix site! Edited December 19, 2015 by wamwig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLC1966 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Is that an H2S radome I spot on the clear sprues? A 100 Group Fort SFTB?? Excellent! That is one four engine Aircraft I would buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatalbert Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I wonder if they would do a modern F-5a as this kit has been in the catalogue for many years so must be a popular subject..Would love a new one of these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I point blank refuse to pay silly second hand prices Allan You won't get a Do217 because there are no extant examples and I very much doubt any usable engineering drawings. Anyone making a posting on this thread should bear this in mind It's also been pointed out elsewhere that each year contains one US and one WWll Luftwaffe subject. However as the thread title is " ... Future Releases" given time almost any subject, not excluded by the constraints of the first sentence, could be tooled! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff_B Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Given its the RAF Centenary next year I would guess a strong RAF bias next year. with a mix of new tools and revised tooling's such as the Phantom FGR2. I suspect the new tools would replace old mouldings so a Ju-88 might be possible as the Luftwaffe subject to fill out their BoB line up, US wise I guess a new P-47 would be a contender as it used by the USAAF, go with the B-17 and possible RAF boxing too.

sammy da fish Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I would to see in 1/48 Meteor trainer/night fighter Hunter both single and twins Vampire any mark Venom any mark Hampden and in 1/72 Lincoln Most of the above would have great mileage for Airfix and see multiple purchases. Just think of how many Sqaudrons used the first four in my list. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone making a posting on this thread should bear this in mind! You're right. I'd forgotten about that!. However, Italeri must have had something on which to base their own (now, long OOP) Dornier 217 kits?. However, I will cross that one off the list! Thanks for the reminder!

Booty003 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I would love to see the current A-4B Skyhawk tweaked up for an E/F model. The Fujimi kit can go for silly money on fleabay. The AM decal guys could go crazy as well.....!! Phil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
