With the recent delivery from Shapeways designers of the Salmson, SPAD 13 and AEG G.IV off of folk's "most wanted lists", I'll start the next lilne of inquiry:
What are the top 3 aircraft on your "most wanted llist" in order of priority?

For me:
1. Albatros D.I
2. SPAD 11
3. Nieuport 24
1. Voisin 3
2. Phoenix C.I
3. Pomilio PC
4. Nieuport 27/24
5. Nieuport 24bis
6. Nieuport 21
Voison 3, not a pretty plane but lots built, one of my books says the first German plane shot down was downed by an Voison 3.
Used by the French, Brits, Belgiums, Italians and Russians.
1. Caproni Ca4
2. DH 9
3. FBA type H
1. Voisin 3 (can't have too many pushers)
2. DH9
3. FE8 (Can't have etc)
Then a few 2 seater Nieuports/SPADs would be nice

1 - Voisin type III
2- FBA type H
3- DH4 ( but I would settle for a DH9 also )
Methinks Zoe's no 2 is not far off......

Is there not a Phoenix D1 due as well?
A Martinsyde would also be nice.
Here are my picks, much modified given the incredible productivity of both Kampfflieger and Colinwe:
1. Pfalz D.viii (this should just about complete my late-war German fighter collection)
2. Rumpler 6B (another German float plane- einsitzer, nice clean lines, long service life)
3. Albatros W.4 (again, should be easy to do since Kampfflieger already makes an Albatros D.II)

For me:
Spad 11/16
DH9
Avro 504
For me
1. Voisin 3
2. SAML 2
3. Phonix D1(2)
I would vote for a DH9 & an Austi Ball AFB1 for Wingcos sake, and I like the idea of a what if aircraft.

1/ Caudron R11 A.3
2/ Halberstadt C.V
3/ Martinsyde G100/102
Funny you should say that....Originally Posted by Chris Maes
I like 1915/1916. So, I would like to have a model of these important early types :
1. Nieuport 10 (single seater)
2. Albatros D.I
3. Voisin 3
Since I haven't seen a post on this thread in 24 hours, and since a couple of the planes requested have taken flight since the question was posted, I’ve determined that based upon a totally unscientific weighting of the aircraft by individuals' rankings (3 pts to 1st choice, 2 pts to 2nd choice, 1 pts to 3rd choice) of those that voted it appears that the topmost currently desired models are:
1. Voison 3
2. DH9
3. Albatros D.I and SPAD 11/16
In addition, there are at least a dozen more types desired and listed. Hopefully this is of interest to the Shapeway modelers!

For me the Pfalz D.XV please, Pfalz D.VIII will be on my next order.
A-H Phönix fighters are on the next order too so I´ll need some italian opponents:
1. SAML 2
2. SVA 5
3. Hansa-Brandenburg D.I - with horizontal stabilizer
4. Aviathik D.I - raised gun version with ear-cooler
5. ...
.

open end!!
But don´t hurry colin, I´m running out of money!

Hi, Italian planes are definitely something I want to do very soon nd I've just added the Phonix C.I so the K.U.K is expanding.

"Most Wanted"
Tally updated to include late responses and remove produced aircraft. Top three priorities of those that responded are now:
1. Voison 3
2. DH9
3. SPAD 11/16 and SAML 2 (tie)
Honorable listing to Caudron R.11 since it was next on the list and had numerous votes on a previous poll. Somebody wrote they were going to pay to have it made. So, maybe folks aren't voting for it now.
Maybe I'll turn this into a regular poll with the top contenders

Hi, I hope to have a finished Voisin 3 a little later today, so a picture may follow shortly.
Colin
Expect a few more orders - about 20 people expressed an interest and intent to buy from your shop today. They got to see your work in both the pristine and painted/decalled state, and were most impressed.
There are too many "Shapeways Wanted" threads currently open and we have data spread out all over the place. To solve this, I'm allowing only one thread of this type per month, and the current thread that will server from now until March 1 is here.
Thank you,
Oberst Hajj
