I'd love to see some prototype aircraft such as the Vulcan, Victor and Valiant in there original prototype designs. A Kestrel would also be good. i can see the difficulty though as generally most prototypes were quickly altered and the documentation and images might not be available.

Hi Martin. I do miss another great legend in the poll. The Grumman Albatross. I would like to vote for this bird. Do you see a chance for it?

Cheers, Arne :)

In the current aircraft I am thinking that we need a new Eurofighter Typhoon and we definitely need the F-35 series finished. A golden oldie that I really like the look of is the Supermarine Scimitar. Of course Helos we have only just started scratching the surface.

In reality, if you build it I will install it.
The Typhoon and the F-35 Family is added. Why don't you go and vote for the Scimitar, Steve? That one I have added from the day one onward and it has gathered a meager 27 votes so far. Change that.... :mrgreen:

Added - I very much hope this one will be made, Arne. We have a big competence in seaplanes around, have we?

So far unknown to me, Joe. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. On the very first glance it has reminded me of the Howard 500 which I adore.

I have added it, although I would love to see most of the others beforehand. The existing one is not too bad, isn't it?
Cheers,
Martin

Ofcourse the existing C17 is fine! But since we are quite spoiled with FAIB and other quality it would be nice to see a C17 in that kind of quality one fine day! :-)

Andrew "Drew" Hall had a new C-17 in the works but never finished it. It looked promising. Not sure what he's up to these days, haven't seen him on the boards in a while.

Could start a poll for which older AI models could be either updated or remade.

I hope to do a new C-130 this year at some point.

KC-130 and LC-130 would make me especially happy ;-)

+1 here on the Hercs, although the FSX conversion of the old faithful HTAI models is a start.

I agree with all of that. Lots of versions to be done other than the basic C-130.

Cancel my request for an Aero Commander. I found one by Mike Cronin - "4_GA Aero Grand Commander 680FL".
A paint kit is also available which I tarted up and used. It's for FS9 but works okay in FSX with .dds textures.

Hercules seems to be on everyone's wishlist....

I will add it...under one condition....I am still longing for a well-used fsx.cfg and prepar3d.cfg from version 2 and if possible version 1!

Or I just code what I remember from years ago and won't fix any crashes you will surely encounter :smt003
Cheers,
Martin

Okay, the internet was friendly as usual. I have everything I need and will add the Hercules anyway.
