Known for their sporadic re-issues of truly venerable kits, their most recent offering is the splendid
 
SM 55X (http://www.squadron.com/ItemDetails.asp?item=GM05503)

in 1/96th scale. I don't think this is the Delta kit from the 1970's, as I remember that one
being in 1/72. Still, its awash in whiffing potential, and quite affordable.

the old Kleeware kit (same source as Glencoe's Curtiss Condor), a really nice model in its day too and fitted in with a scale that was very much in vogue at that time, eg. Frog etc.

I'd love to see Glencoe re-release their Convair 880 in the markings of the one flying at Pax River.
