This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

P-47 Razorback for me!

Douglas TBD-1 Devastator (but, then you guys could have probably guessed I'd say that!)

MORE P-38's
Other than that, I definitely vote for the Typhoon. Saw the cockpit of a Typhoon at Duxford. DAYUM...you had to be REALLY small to fit in there. It would be a tight fit even for Mrs. Mudge and she's 5'1" and 115 lbs.
Mudge the too large for the Typhoon, too.

Mudge, maybe you need to be bummin' rides in a C-47, C-46, C-130, etc...

Very humorous.
Mudge the amused

My list is big.
Texas Aircraft/Flugwerk style, 5 or more
JU-87B
FW190-D9
SBD
Hellcat
ME-410
ME-110
P6E
One off, or two,
XP-67 Moonbat
XP-55 Ascender
SC2 Seahawk
I would also like to see a T28 in the Guppy configuration. That is totally doable.
This off topic, but I would like to see a GeeBee Y. I know golden Aviation has built one, but the only picture I've seen of it is the one one their website. I hope they build several, or offer them as kits. Me wantee.
One last wish, since we're doing this, I want the gubmint to release A-6's F-4's and A-4's for sale. You shouldn't have to get congressional approval to get one of those planes. Just the effort to get one of those running, and the training required to fly one, and the fact that any weapons avionics would be removed, pretty much rules out terrorist boy from hopping in and doing bad stuff with it. Ten years from now, the only ones left that haven't been blown up or scrapped, are going to be rotting in front of the VFW in North Dakota. Thats not right.

O.P.. your govt, ( bureaucrats ) is terrified of the thought of mass quantities of military combat jets being made available to the public.
Case in point, the Cobra. Essentially UH-1 running gear fitted to a streamlined fuselage. The way they act about flyng Cobras you'd think we were talking about releasing atomic bombs.
It is nothing more than perception. Much like the black rifle hysteria ginned up by the antigun crowd.

Rick is right. Over in Ft. Drum Ny, they had rows and rows of cobras. There working on making them scrap metal, if there not already.
