Five dreams
PBY Catalina to wander from lake to lake on a Canadian camping holiday of indefinite length.
MiG-15 for a taste of the legend.
J-35 Draken for the clean angular lines and Nordic tourism.
Tupolev 95M for the feel of the turboprops on a 20+ hour patrol flight.
Sukhoi 47 Berkut just to see what swept wings mounted back to front can do.
I still think longingly back to 1995 or so when the Finnish Air Force was selling its fleet of MiG-21s with Marconi electronics for USD 3,000 apiece.

I've flown the PBY, DC-3 on wheels and skis, and the original Lockheed 10A Electra and Lockheed 12 Electra Junior.

Single seat Fighters:
Macchi MC 202 Folgore
Reggiane RE 2005 Sagittario

Airliners/transport/bombers:
Savoia-Marchetti SM.55
Savoia-Marchetti SM.75 Marsupiale
Savioa-Marchetti SM.79 Sparviero (aka "the damned hunchback")
Douglas DC3 Dakota
Arado Ar 234 Blitz
(sorry for any eventual imprecision in airplane's names)
