The WIF/Counter-Factual Thread

OK folks, well in an effort to recover from our recent technical issues and attract members and guests back to the site, I have decided to start a thread where everyone can show off their WIFS/Counter-Factuals.
I find WIFS most interesting and intriguing as the only limit to this style style of modelling is imagination. It is interesting to note that most current "real world" aircraft (be they civil or military types) started out as WIFs weather in their design or marketing phases of development. Any WIF is welcome on this thread.
I will start the ball rolling with a couple of mine.

Nice idea Ray. I'll chuck mine up when I get home. There may even be an appearance by a certain red Macchi racer if I pull my finger out ;)

Closest I've got is this - post apocalypse Japanese trainer used to transport a VSH zombie killing babe! Resident Evil Afterlife!

Oh, and I have since corrected the paint on the cooling grill in front of the engine - originally red, now blue.
