The AIR RACER Collection has 11 planes.
Six Mustangs and five Texans.





I want to add one more Texan to even things out.

As you can see, that wild painted "Suzy Q" Mustang has not been added.
Not yet any way.
If and when I add more Racers, that plane will be a consideration.
I'm sure I could expand this collection with a new set of planes next year?

Right now, I need your help choosing the final Texan model for the current collection.
It obviously has to be an "air racer".
There have been a few suggestions, but I am still unsure.

Heres two pages of Texan race aircraft...at airliners.net

and a Bing image search for Texan Air Racer:
texan air racer - Bing Images

Please, take a look and give me your choice for number 6(#12).

...
I was going to suggest an idea for an IPMC themed plane.
I even thought about using the Suzy Q Mustang as a basis for a paper model themed paint scheme.

The only problem is that this only appeals to plane builders (and fans of the Mustang).
For an IPMC model it should appeal a wider range of paper modelers and
also appeal to less skilled modelers...not just experienced aircraft builders.

This is the reason I have dropped the idea for the time being.
