Well I am on your list for the 109 pedals, but I think F16 pedals would be popular as well! You could also look at 1 axis RAF pedals (Spitfire/Hurricane etc)
...

WWII

Bf 109 pedal - practical, beautiful smile

IMO - Spit are not practical for sim use other than replica pit builders... Same for Hurri/P-51/P-47 due his operations way

Modern Jet

F-16 - just because is most wanted. smile

Civil

Cessna and Boeing

Helicopter

Maybe the UH-1, unsightly but common in various helicopter types

Slaw,

And such a generic WW2 look, with two axis but brakes on bicycle style lever to attach on joystick?
For Spit, Hurri, Blenheim, Lagg, il-2, Yak, Pe-2, La5... wink

Or a economical 1 axis version (similar to WKB Pedal-T concept, not his operation system - press instead push).

F-16 or BF109, but instead of just springs, I'd like to have exponential oil dampend / load cell system for brakes.. currently the pedals feel like gas pedals instead of brake pedals

What about WW2 style rudder pedals, with the torsion bar above, to be fixed under the instrument panel. The majority of WW2 fighters had this type of pedals.

Some time ago there was a guy who made them... but dissapeared (know him Sokol1?)
You would be the only one on these pedals. Simpit builders would really appreciate that.

This.

Currently, the old Simped F-16 pedals are the only ones I know of to not only have the right pedal shape, but the right load cell feel to the brakes. (At least going by what I've heard, given how those things are hideously expensive whenever you see a set for sale.)

Also, helicopter anti-torque pedals go without saying due to their very different design. Bonus points if you can make them FFB for the DCS helicopter pilots out there, but I'm not realistically expecting that.
