Now that the C-17 is ending its production run w/o a main stream model being produced, what other major aircraft never made it into the hobby stores?

Was an EA-6B ever made?

Unless there was something from Allyn many years ago, I doubt there was a model C-124. Same feeling about the C-133. Any Short Belfasts? Is there a theme here? :)

Didn't Revell make one in 1/48?

Hasegawa in 1/72 and Dragon in 1/144.

Welsh Models do all of those in 1/144 vac. They're absolutely gorgeous.
Academy.
AOL : )
That was a C-141.
Airfix did one in 1/48. I have one unbuilt in my Deep Stash.
Hasegawa did one in 1/72.
Define 'major'... there have been a number of airplanes that haven't been kitted, but the question of 'major' is vague.
For me the Boeing Monomail, in any scale, would be fabulous. I don't know as there'd been any! Boeing only built 8 airframes, so the question of how 'major' it is considered is a problem. But it was important!
There are a lot of airplanes like that... important, but short-lived or never in full production, left unkitted. Yet we get the Luftwaffe cocktail napkin air force ad nauseum.
I'd love to see Eduard do a Salmson in 1/48 and 1/72. As far as I I know, there've been some resin, vac, and MERLIN (gag) Salmson's... no
1/48 as far as I know.--- Stephen

Academy did a 1/48 EF-111A. Hasegawa also did one in 1/72,

Beechcraft Staggerwing?
Armstrong-Whitworth Argosy turboprop?
(kim)
AMT in 1/48, Rareplanes (2 releases) and Sword (2 versions) in 1/72.
Welsh Models 1/144
Didn't ITC do one in 1/32 scale ???
Have you seen the Magna Models 1/72nd version ? Not much left out of
100 quid though!Richard.
ITC did it & then in the mid - late '70s, the Staggerwing Assn. or some group re-released it.

ROTFL! I'd be content on it with a vac-form or resin kit.
