Re: Vote for the next aircraft

In case anyone cares---and I have a feeling that most of you don't-- the Model Power next plane poll, based on 15,500 votes so far, looks like this: first place goes to the F-105 with 19% of the votes, second is the TBF/TBM Avenger with 18% and third goes to the BF-110 with 15%.The next closest is the F8U Crusader ( 9% ), giving this plane only a slim chance of making the cut. What surprises me are the second and third choices--both planes being made far better-- and bigger--than MP will do them by Hobby Master and, in the case of the BF-110, by Corgi as well. The only explanation I can come up with is that many MP fans can't afford the prices that the leading manufacturers charge, so they opt for the same planes, with reduced size and less quality from this company. Still, I will probably but the F-105 and BF-110 when and if MP offers them.
