I'm happy to see someone brought up the "Shorty's". I'd love to fly my FireFly as God intended it to be flown. ;-)
Now, regarding motor sizes. I like to be able to fly multi-stage rockets in a smaller field. I'd like to see either the 1/2A6-0 and/or A8-0 boosters come back. Those are nice for three stagers. Use a B14-0 in the first then one of the two listed above in the second. For the third stage, either a 1/2A6-4 or an A8-5. The kids can be wowed with a three stage flight and you can easily get all the parts back.
Another cool motor I thought was the A5 series.
A long burn 18mm in the 114mm length would be neat.
Since Rocketflite still does not seem to be close to coming back, how about making some BP motors with sparky effects? I'm not sure if you were planning on going up to 38mm size with BP or not, but those H BP motors Rocketflite made were pretty slick.
