Thanks!

I guess there has been a misunderstanding here. Tarangus people keeps updates from time to time at IPMS-Stockholms site, and there they state that the scale for the Lansen is 1:48. The air force number of the plane is #32, so that's probably what started the talk of a 1:32 scale model.

On the pics the parts looks fairly large, but then again the Lansen is only 6" shorter than a F 4 Phantom, and has actually a 3" wider span. So she's no little midget.

Anyway, at the moment they are fighting a cracked fuselage mold, so it's not due yet, but the fight goes on to get a J 32 lansen on the roll, and I can hardly wait...

Its a very handsome fighter, and one of my favourite jet subjects. I could almost be tempted to stray from the WWI...

Hi Tony
Many apologies for the mistake with the scale of the Lansen, wholly my fault. Yes you're correct about it being 1/48 and not 1/32.
Still very much looking forward to it's release.
All the best.

I agree. Even if I'm a propfighterman this is interesting. An in 32-scale it probably would have been too big. I mean, where to put it?

You're supposed to use it as a shelf for your 1/72 models of course. I'm excited by this one. The Lansen is such a beautiful airplane, something like a more muscular Hunter.

That would be some shelf.

I'll see if I can find one somewhere and go berserk with the camera. There should be one at the airforce museum in sweden, and actually two in flying condition. At least they were three years ago, sampling high altitude air for radiation measurments.
