General Aviation suggestions?

[VTSummit]

I'm mostly building 1:8 scale cars, and building a diorama for some 1:18 collectibles... but what I really want is some nice general aviation (non-military) planes. I have a tiny Cessna 150, but hoping to find some interesting 1/48 or larger (really, really prefer larger) planes. Has anyone built a nice GA plane kit that they would recommend? Anything from Bonanzas to Citations, vintage, modern...

I'd suggest anything by Eduard. I've got their crop duster (Cemak?) out on the bench. Their kits are so nicely moulded that I hesitate to build it because I don't want to screw it up. I built models back in the '70s, and those models were very crude by comparison. Fun, though.

How about a DC-3...that's one of my favorite old planes!

How about concorde. It was a great build. I did it for a friend who's fanatical about it. Pantherman
