Re: FD Scale Aircraft 5
Nice work Jabba, just a little nit-pick: it was "A3D" not "A-3D" (pre-1962 and post-1962 designations, only that there was no post-1962 A-3D designation, only "A" and "B").

C-46A Commando
CW-20A/C-55 Commando- B.O.A.C "St Louis" 1941.
This aircraft was in fact the Prototype that lead the C-46 Commando Family. Originally a passenger airliner prototype, it was fitted with a dihedralled tailplane and endplate vertical tail fins and powered by two 1,700 hp (1,268 kW) Wright R-2600 Twin Cyclone radial piston engines. It was later refitted with the single tail and was in brief service with the U.S.A.A.C designated as the C-55 before being lend-leased to the British Government in 1941 for BOAC.
I have updated the Commando drawings and have been reposted back on page 22 and it also includes this as well as the C-46 A,D & F. there will be more painted up C-46s on the way oh and to both Darth Panda and Eswube you guys can both feel free to do them up in R.O.C.A.F and Deutsche Lufthansa colors.

Re: FD Scale Aircraft 5
It's been long time since I've done FD scale, but noticed (/or couldn't find) a lack of MiG-31s in the bucket, so:
Re: FD Scale Aircraft 5
Darth Panda did MiG-31 not so long ago, but strangely He later removed it. But it's not lost (and hopefully it will be uploaded soon to Main Archive):

Re: FD Scale Aircraft 5
Oh, well I wonder why I got the idea, that someone did it, but despite searching all morning, couldnt find trace of it. 
Re: FD Scale Aircraft 5
Golly We still don't have a MiG-25 though!

Unfortunately some drawings are indeed lost. But some of those that were posted and later removed have been preserved by some Users.
@Squizzy
Progress of "Polish Wings" thread (esp. in relation to parts that will be covering post-war military aviation) makes me think about starting also "Soviet Wings" thread sometime later.
