Yes. the list is long. There is a risk that everyone will vote for the aircraft that he himself proposed and each aircraft will receive one vote, or modification maker will say "no, I will not make this plane, let it be somebody else".

Just a note:

New planes which have scarce to none invaluable info which is needed to build a model after, have little chance to make it in the final, for obvious reasons :D , unless YOU come forward and provide reliable info. One cannot build an aircraft just based on fantasies or wet dreams, you know that. Don't say I didn't warn you...

If it's gonna be a tie, we could take a second tour vote and let community make up its mind, deciding what it really wants. I just want the crowd to be happy in the end, that's why I am here.

Good news folks, the SU-34 is back into the game, today I had the confirmation. But I need a hand and as I know you , you will all help. Please give me all you've got as important reference info I should take into consideration (photos, schemes, important technical details that one must take into consideration when building the 3D model etc). I need them quickly to pass them to the team responsible for it. The sooner I have them, the sooner the plane will be finished ;)

Thank you in advance

More BONUS moments

Folks , there's a problem with the vote system I didn't anticipated. The Website Poll applet allows just 15 item to choose from and there are 33 planes total in the final list, so...instead of complicating things and making at least 2x15 choices (and hopping that none will vote twice different planes LOL) we better make up our minds for a final 15 contestants list. So please take a good look to the preliminary list and let me know what you've decided.If this will be sorted out until Monday (enough time I hope), then we will have a poll Tuesday for two or three days, to let enough time for all to vote. If there is a better solution I would like to hear it.

I am ready to deleting the proposed by me KAI KF-21 Boramae, because this is the aircraft of the future, it is in development and we do not yet know exactly how and when it will be mass-produced.
What can definitely be removed from the list is the Sukhoi Su-75 Checkmate. This aircraft is an absolute propaganda fantasy and will never be translated into reality. You can Join together "doubles" as   Mirage 2000N & Mirage 2000D. Minus useles for game aircrafts which are not "fighters not bombers nor recon" which are interesting but can not be applied in any mission.  This is my opinion, personal. You may not agree with it.

[UllyB]

I agree that planes which don't exist yet, so there won't be enough credible data to build a model should go. But let here some other opinions before I am using my knife LOL

The way I would do things is to complicate things...

Are we in a rush ? Maybe not
Do we like all those aircrafts ? I guess yes

So I would make a poll for each category of aircrafts.
Not to decide which aircraft will be created, but to ask people their preference and then take a decision, because I'm fully aware that such a work should have a minimum interest game-wise.

Okay it's a big mess to organize, but it's not as hard as making a brand new 3D model.

Just my grain of salt

Actually, I don't care.

We already have some of the greatest aircraft already available.

But I don't blame any of you for dreaming....

A wise proposition nonetheless, BUT, sorry (sponsor privilege) , these chapters won't be included: Missiles/Transport/Sea planes (except CL-215). The list is already long as it is. Also, entries made previous this discussion, won't make it to the list for the same reason. If your model/idea is backed up by a majority of community, we will try it, unless anyone else find a better solution. I already asked Erik , through our esteemed admin, Wrench, to explore the posibility to extend to 35-40 the applet load. I am still wating for an answer on this matter.

I don't know what's this statement stand for!  I think you need to explain yourself.  Because as far as I see your statement it sounds rude.  I hope I'm wrong and if I am please accept my apology.

I think what he meant is that, for him, the myriads of aircraft already in download section are enough. About the dreaming I think he meant that one can dream what aircraft would like to see built. I don't think he wanted to be rude. He just didn't choose the right words to express himself.

[UllyB]

I've got word from Wrench and it's not good news. It seems that applet can't be changed to support more lines, so...if , by tomorrow, I don't hear a better solution , we will adapt Cliff's idea and make it work somehow. More about that tomorrow.
