Model suggestion SR-71

[rwatkins2112]

I remember you guys were looking for suggestions for the next project but don't see it anywhere so I'll post it here. 

I think a large SR-71 Blackbird would make a great addition. To this day, there is no other plane equal to the beautiful design and the mystery of this plane. I have several small models but wish there was something better.

Thanks for your consideration.

what scale were you thinking?   1:32??

Also would have to have a pilot cause those guys wore space suits... Chuck Yeager probably the most famous although not famous for flying SR71

You could add some of the X Planes to that list!  I'd crawl over broken glass for a large and detailed model of the X-1 and the X-15.

Have not seen anyone produce a 1/8 Mini Cooper.

 

This would be quite a popular model with the magazine covering the vast history of the iconic Mini.

[Sandro]

this would also be nice model with a lot of details

 

 

Same scale like the Routemaster

 

Or to stay with the aviation group Airwolf?? There was a test a few years ago. Like the mini the Test in France 2 years ago.

Please consider the iconic UH-1H Iriquois "Huey" helicopter, the troop carrier version is the 'slick' model, but you could include options for the other weapons that would turn it into a gunship.  The Huey was a huge part of the Vietnam experience for the thousands of veterans that served in that place, as well as most every veteran that served in the 1960's through the 1980's.
