Could also be building 1/144 scale 727's.

 

Why not 1/32 ?

(Then there is the DC-10, the Tristar, and the Trident …)

Just a big fan of the 727, as it was the first commercial jet I flew on as a passenger - quite an experience back then.

 

We walked through the 727 at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. Edward was impressed by the airstair at the rear of the place under the tail. The rear engine placement threw him off a bit until I explained the ducting.

If we're really serious about offering suggestions for our next GB, a few suggestions:

An oldie kit: manufactured before 1975

Any racing subject: aircraft, boats, auto 

Any non military subject

Sorry guys , I was out for a few days. Great idea to brainstorm.  I love your ideas Peter.

 

What about SANDBOX G.B. ?  Anything desert/sand/tropical related.  So many options.

A friend had an E46 M3. He was moving to Australia and offered it to me for $16K CDN. Low mileage and babied. This was around 2007. I didn't what to do with it at the time so I passed.

Martin, the cars I've missed out on because the timing was slightly off or we didn't know they'd explode in value. 

In the mid 2000's, Nissan R32 GT-Rs were $12-18K CAD and you could find lots of them. Then the 2010s arrived, they became legal for US import and their prices shot through the roof. Nice ones are now $80K and up. In USD on top of it! 

Never mind what's happened to 964s and 993s.
