Question what would you like to see more of......
It seems to be a slow night here on DA.C, so I racked my brain to come up with this marginally interesting poll. After voting please explain your vote.

Yea... an eclectic mix, an exotic blend, a potpourri of possibilities, a bouquet of Boeing's, a medley of MD's or a league of Lockheeds...

I voted regional/small because they contrast thus compliment the larger birds... hence my fondness for AC stuff lately. Always room for a good narrowbody (MDs, yes!) and I'm actually ok with the widebodies but (with the exception of the new CRS TWA) I'm growing a bit tired of the 747s... they already make up about 20-30% of my collection... kinda disproportionate... anyway my 2 cents...

More "common" aircraft. 100+ Delta MD-88's in service, not a single one in any scheme to show for it. ONE plane painted in a scheme for 6 weeks gets made however, if it's Asian......

I would like to see a balanced release of all the types instead of more of this and less of that.
I voted for widebodies because nobody else had and it looked lonely.

There are still so many DC-10's to be made.

On the other hand there are so many 727's and 737's I'd really like to see.

Damn I have to go with the 10's..........

Folks,

The way my credit card bill is at the moment I think I'd like to see LESS of these little buggers for a while - especially as I have a new baby Saab 9-3 to look after...

Oh well, if you have to ask - I'll go for Ruskies, turboprops and propliners...

I'd like to see more gratuitous strip bar scenes in today's cop movies, like they used to do so much more of in the '80's.....

I build model airport and would love love love to have some CRJ and D328s floating about there. Also, give us some props - perhaps the DHC8 and the DHC3 for example. I would also like to see the Mesaba SF340 which is a nice aircraft.

Yep, while I would always continue to buy the wide bodies and would love 757s for example but Regionals would be a real treat!

PARTICULARLY THAT Dornier!!!

Exclamation explanation
I want to see narrow bodies, and the reason is I would like to see more exotic and rare things, like CV880 and CV990 Coronados, Caravelles and Tridents, TU 154's and IL62's, more B707's and DC8's stretch series!!!! These are all narrow bodies but the manufacturers are missing the boat! VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE !!!!!

Despite what I said above about regionals, I would LOVE to see an SU (Aeroflot) IL-86. Great plane and a pleasure to travel on

I want to see at least one standard release DC-8 stretch. Not a charter, not a cargo plane. A Delta would be nice. A United or Eastern would be greatly appreciated. (How long have I had that on my sig?)

I would love more DC-8s of any and all variteies: Stretch, unstretched, semi-stretched (62s) and all of them should be regular releases.

Add to that some CV 880s and 990s, also in standard releases.

Even a few more 707s wouldn't be bad. Personally I would still like a red Braniff Jellybean 707, and maybe a yellow one too.

I have a lot of 747s and they take up a tremendous amount of space, but there are a few I would want:

Eastern
JAL (o/c)
Thai (regular)
ANA (regular)
Iberia
Mandarin
British Airways (Landour)

ANA Regular 747 would indeed be nice. Not sure about the DC8s in passenger livery. I would live to see them in freighter, like Evergreen for example.
