Looks nice.....but it has me miffed why the least prolific of the Falcon family has been kitted the most. Hasegawa then Revell also did the (1:48) Falcon 10. Why won't someone do a good Falcon 20, Falcon 50, or Falcon 900???

I have to agree there Ray.Who knows why the larger Falcons or Mysteres aren't being produced. Could it be there isn't enough demand for them. I remember some years ago opining that there weren't enough Russian civil aircraft being kitted, even by the likes of Amodel and Zvesda etc. An English speaking Russian member of that forum chimed in and said something along the lines of "Yes, but look how many manufacturers are producing Bf 109s including Amodel. They must think there's a demand for them don't you think?" I think that Amodel is one of the manufacturers game enough to as we say here in Oz "ave a go". Perhaps we should petition them to produce more civvie types. For all we know they might be planning to and already doing the research to. Let's hope so because they've just produced the Learjet 60, or at least announced it and they're already doing other civil types as well so "more power to their arm". At least there is one company that seems to be listening to us and their products are improving by the month and they're still relatively inexpensive for what you get.

Except that Amodel have started doing bizjets and the like. I've just received their Bombardier Learjet 55 and have almost completed their Piaggio Avanti. I see there are other little delights on the way, Just about all the bizjets you can think of are available in vacform (Broplan do somenice Dassault Falcons for example. Unfortunately those kits are a bugger to make and the sooner Amodel get around to them the better. The Dujin Falcon 10 was probably made in that form not to compete with the Mach 2 Falcon 20.
