How about Army co-operation aircraft. For the RAF you can have the Lysander, Auster, Mustang MK1. LW Herschel 126, Storch. Soviets Polikarpov Po2. You could even stretch a point and have USN Spitfires spotting for the big guns over Normandy.

Spitfires with stars. Nice.

I like to suggest post war the 50's the 60's the 70's or what ever decade. Anything with in that decade. Militarchy aircraft.

Now, now....just because you don't have your usual "customers" do deal with, don't lose all that you've gained through your anger management courses, you've wo(bullshit)rked so hard to get where you are now, remember....1, 2, 3, 4....

Dayum - it appears Jan's been in his cups and is poking the bear.
My money's on Karl for the win!

Ok, after reading the thread, I've see more than a few ideas I really like. My suggestion in no particular order:
1) WWII Liaison AC - Storch, Lysander, etc
2) I would love see a few jet GBs. 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s even. Yeah, I know we focus on WWII here. But scattering a few jet builds in would be nice.
3) Captured aircraft is a fascinating idea as well
4) Recyled old, un-completed builds is a GREAT idea. I have more than I a few I could resurrect. Ta-152, FW-190D, Swordfish to name a few
5) I have not seen this idea floated yet and it could make for some complicated builds, but what the hell? Damaged birds ranging from minor holes to major holy hell, how did that stay in the air. I just read through Shep Payne's B-17 crash landed thing that came with the early Monogram B-17s. Damned, that is art. Diorama NOT required for the GB, but optional.
6) More PTO focused GB
7) CBI focused GB
8) Japanese birds only GB.

That's my ideas for now.

Sounds like you should run the polling and make the selections for the next 2 years given your enthusiasm.

I like the 50s 60s 70s idea. I would build a Vietnam-era Douglas Skyraider.
