Wow very interesting, Hawk, Gladiator, Swordfish and Catalina, not bad! I think they’re very good choices, Ju 88 and Do 17 would be nice but hey can’t have everything, maybe they’re releases for next year. I would like it if they released the larger 1/72 aircraft such as the Catalina and Wellington into 1/144 scale for the poor and those with less space.
A Halifax and Stirling would be good as well, personally i’d love a Beaufighter or Auster but i doubt that’ll happen.

The Catalina WAS going to be 1/144th but there was just not enough detail for a diecast model. The 1/72nd version will have folding undercarriage and folding floats. Saw the prototype models last week – SUPERB! RAF Coastal Command PBY-2 with beaching gear and U. S.Navy PBY-5A with tricycle u/c.
