My vote was already cast for the B-29 and I still want it to be made first. But a B-17C would be sweet as well.

With its distinctive rudder, oval shaped waist gun windows, and its ventral tub gun position, yep, it would make a great looking model.

I'd go for the B-29 in 1/72

[JustPlaneNuttz]

Yeah, I have to agree 100% with both Mustangdriver and CC, as I could go for that B-17C in it's classic polished finish so fast -- even though I did vote for the Stirling. (I tell 'ya, if someone did a sharp job of that Wright Field collection in 1:72, they'd sell a tonne of it!) Of course, it doesn't help I'm listening to a Glenn Miller Christmas broadcast on CD from 1941, doess it?

How about a poll for the runner-up in each category? (Just kidding -- JUST KIDDING!!)

Would you believe it, I spent yesterday listening to Lorraines fathers old collection Of Glen Miller music, great stuff the recordings have Glen introducing each number.

Music like that never stops being cool.

I hear that, Jim! We are such big band nuttz in our household. My wife has some of those old vinyl (or shellac?) recordings but we don't have a turntable out anymore -- we're 'square oldsters' -- we only have CDs -- not 'downloads' from the ITMS (Ooops! I mean the iTunes Music Store! -- according to our teenage niece and nephew anyhow! Kids.)
