For various reasons, I'm interested in working with complex projective varieties that are also principal bundles. I began by looking at projective spaces themselves $\mathbb{CP}^n = SU(n+1)/U(n)$, then generalised to Grassmannian spaces $Gr(n,d) = U(n)/U(d) \times U(n-d)$, and finally to flag manifolds $U(n)/U(k_1) \times \cdots \times U(k_m)$. I am now looking for other examples of projective varieties that are also principal bundles. Does anyone know of any?

EDIT: Sorry for asking such an ill-posed question, I didn't realize I had made so many tacit assumptions. What I am looking for are principal $G$ bundles $\pi:P \to X$ such that $G$ and $P$ are both compact Lie groups (ideally matrix groups), and $X$ is a projective variety. As far as I understand it is not always possible to construct such a bundle for a projective variety, one obstruction being the absence of a continuous symmetry group.
