I'm happy for the DHC-2 Beaver to come with just wheels, it can sit parked next to my An-2 Colt. (I'm contemplating getting a Beechcraft Staggerwing to go with them, too.)

The Vultee Vanguard is, oddly, a new one for me but I like the look of it & either the Australian Army Air Corps or Royal Australian Marines Air Arm may get one.

Would love to see them also do one of the various 2 seat versions:





The thought occurs that dropping the two-seat interior and canopy on a Re2001 or Re2002 could make for an interesting simple wiff.

Which ones in particular?

Dora Wings, so far, have sometimes taken a bit longer than expected to release a kit (especially in 1/72) but I haven't noticed any that failed to appear.

I currently have these two 1/48 kits in my stash;



And nice looking kits, they are!

Sorry, I meant the first line.

I'm fairly sure most of the last couple of pages of kits have already been released.
