I'm psychic. Can I have a job now?
The Lancaster and the Stuka have already been alluded to in the past. The Spitfire is, frankly, missing- and the longer nosed Griffon engined one makes more sense as a model. Also, the MkXXIV had all the best bits- the nicer canopy, the bigger tail surfaces (important on a model) and best of all, rocket mounting points on the wings! To me it's the best looking variant, and the one that has the characteristics that make it most suitable for replication/representation as a model. It was alos the fastest, which will please many park-flying aficionados. Spitfire enthusiasts will argue about anything like this to the death, though.
Just to help get that whole relevance thing going too, here's a picture of a MkXXIV flying over Hong Kong:
Or how about a C130 Spectre? A nice spooky gunship would look awesome!
Lol shame the picture is a Canberra bomber lol
The RAF Museum did a goof in that restoration - the long side windows were only on the Mk I and Mk II, but that airframe actually is a Mk X which should have a smaller trapezoid window towards the back
Bad luck RC, but this was picked up on the 7th, 8th and 9th posts after mine. The prizes have already been dispatched to the lucky winners of the competition, you know who you are.
Thank you __BB-Q !
BTW does anybody know what happened to the G-fire? I watched her flying 81 at a airshow in germany and later she was sold to the usa.

Yes! Because you were the first one to pick it up you've won a semi-portable oven defroster with a built in dodo bird repellent. Congratulations.
No, it was an accident, I have both pictures side by side and I accidently clicked on the wrong one so I decided to leave it there and watch all the comments. I think some of them were quite serious.
Looks like it was made out of NA's parts bin
