July 11, 200322 yr If you could bring an aircraft out of production back into production what would it be? I would bring the DC-9 back into production.
July 11, 200322 yr This question is tailor made for the best aircraft built in the last 50 years. It would have to be the Concord(e). 35 years on and there is still nothing yet on the drawing boards that can match its elegance, and pace.

July 11, 200322 yr The Beech Staggerwing. Maybe updated with modern GA technology. cant beat style :)
July 11, 200322 yr Really?:-eek That would be AWESOME! I'd love to see new DHC-2s. They should put the DHC-7(Dash 7) back into production too.
July 12, 200322 yr Neat question..:DLuv too see a Hawker Siddeley Trident in BEA colours fly again......:9Steve
July 13, 200322 yr I will vote for the Vickers Viscount. It was an elegant aircraft with amongst many attractive touches those beautiful oval windows (the shape known as the Weybridge Oval). I might be prejudiced in my choice however, having spent twenty years at the BAe Weybridge plant (formerly the Vickers plant).Denis. The Ancient Brit.
July 13, 200322 yr Fokker F-VII. First successful purpose designed airliner in the world and most successful commercial aircraft of the 1920s with well over 200 delivered.
July 14, 200322 yr More than just rumors...it's true. This was announced a couple of months ago. The Beaver and either the Otter or Twin Otter (I can't remember which) type certificates have been purchased by a canadian company who has stated they will resume production. I don't have a link for this information, but it was in several publications (internet and print) when the news was made public.
