I'd get a 109F-4 with JG26 markings.

That or JU-87B-2. I'd get it up to about 15k above my kid's house, and turn on the dive sirens at 7am to wake them up and take me to breakfast.

If I won the lottery.... wow, I think I'd waste all the money in a lot of planes!

Uhmmmm.... maybe my real "dream-came-true" would be a FW 190D-9... but there aren't many of them around.

I'd like to have a Hog, too... and a Mustang, a Spitfire, a 109 and.... wake up, you dreamer! ;)

Btw, the stuka is a good idea to wake up kids. I'd really like to see that scene!

Ju87Ds were converted to a new Ju87G standard, which were used for tank attacks. They were equipped with two BK37 Flak guns. As the G-Version was no longer used as a dive bomber, the Ju87-G did not have any dive brakes. The G1-Series were converted from Ju87-D3, while the G2-Series modified from the longer D5-Series.

:rofl :rofl You're right, bug, if you have the money, what do you need beauty for? :aok

Back to the wish list, well, maybe I could be happy the same if I had the money to buy (or the ability and time to build) a replica, like the ones in this page

warbuddies

They are really cute, and the FWs and Corsairs do have the right look!
