Gotta lotta love for the classic Boeing 7XX series from the 707's to the latest 737's 
I'd want somebody to make a new variant of the Bugatti Model 100.
For the Contra-Rotating Propellers, I'd want 2x Triple Bladed Propellers and use Electric Motors to power them.
Have the Internal Combustion Engine use a moder modern & reliable engine to better weight balance then the original designs, but use only Electronic Linkages and make it "Fly by Wire".
And use a all Composite Air-Frame.

Only they're not that fast and the sound in the video was added in post production

Not too speedy but if you've got stuff you need to move guess this one will do.

Looks like a Dornier.

reminds me of an OV-10 Bronco pilot being asked about what it was like to fly one. He did mention how great the visibility was, but the noise was horrible. I had never thought about it, but the pilot sat right between both props. Of course they were not going as fast as the ones on that monster.
