1:72 AMX sounds good  :)
For me: All 1:72 Avro Ashton, Mil 12, Yak 24, an early straight wing Vulcan and the Barnes Wallis Swallow SST (That is so near but so far over at Fantastic Plastic).

1/72 AMX  : That would be cool!  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Quote1:72 Avro Ashton
Once the forthcomeing Shorts Sperrin is done, Magna are doing the Ashton as the next big model.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

P.D. Models do a resin 1/48 kit

Im not sure if the MB339 is the same aircraft, but here is one in 1/48

You can get a rather nice Resin 1/72 AMX

BTW are you after a PC-6 or a PC-12 as both are avialable in 1/72 in various mediums

QuoteOne of these days I'll get the 1/350 (I think) Graf Zeppelin and Hindenburg and bash them into a Los Angeles and Akron.
Which kits are those?

The AMT Hindenburg and Akron/Macon kits were 1/520 and I don't recall any 1/350 kits of the Graf or the Hindenburg.

The Hawk kit of the Graf is 1/245.

Anyhow the Graf was 118' longer than the Los Angeles and the Akron/Macon twins were a US design and slightly smaller than the Hindenburg with a subtly different shape and numerous detail differences.

I'd like to see Eduard make a nice 1/72 injected Aero L-159 ALCA to fit into their series of nice L-39 Albatros kits.

Perhaps with Nigeria and Indonesia considering purchasing L-159s it will be the incentive Eduard needs to do it.

Honestly, I appreciate the run-of-the-mill working aircraft that never get kitted by injection-molders.    1:48 versions of everyday, simple prop-jobs would be my wish:

BAE Jetstream
Beech KingAir or a Super 200
Twin Otter (and not that "toy" thing from Modelcraft, either!)
Rockwell Commander
Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

1/72nd scale Buccaneer and Canberra.  

I mean, it is not much to ask for is it?  I can now buy every single variant of Mig there ever was, and the Chinese copies, in any scale I like up to and including 1/6 so it can be flown by Action Man, GI Joe or bl**dy Barby.

But no banana jet.  :dum:  Am I just being greedy?
