What non-typical Warbird would you like to see?

[BigGrey]

My vote is for a Northrup F-15 Reporter.

Does anybody know what happened to the remains of the F-15 fire bomber that crashed years ago. Last I heard the remains were sitting in a hangar somewhere?

I agree with the above. Especially the Marauder and the Havoc

ANY Italian aircraft would be terrific. I would love to see the MiG-3 and the Ki-43 which are both flying

[lestweforget]

There are many but a Short Sunderland and a Handley-Page Halifax would be right up there. I can see it in my minds eye. Nice.... As for U.S. types , the B-36 would be an awseome sight. Never happen though

I'll cast another vote for a Whirly, as long as it carries the prototype paint scheme for its first year of flight ops... ooo la la!





And my second pick is an early B-52, just because this fair lass really, really wants to fly in one.

I often wonder what would have happened if the Vultures had been replaced with Merlins! The Whirlwind just looked so right. Almost an early Hornet.

[Airlift48]

Flying Banana anyone?

[richkolasa]

There's at least one Flying Banana flying [banana].

The one I forgot to mention was just mentioned. The DeHavilland Hornet!

Saab B17
Saab B18
Saab J21
Saab J29 Tunnan
Saab J32 Lansen
Saab J35 Draken
Saab J37 Viggen

Sensing a theme here...

Oh, and a B-23 Dragon. Best looking American WWII Bomber.

Beeeeeutiful. You have very good taste Rich.

[Pogo]

I second the Skycrane with a Jolly Green.

Great question! I'd like to see more whirlybirds for sure, 'specially a Banana. Also want to see a Northrop YC-125 Raider...



Because I knew one personally once upon a time, that's why. Hideous thing.
