Hello all!

Can anybody work out the scale of some aircraft "models" for me?

These are apear to be made of a soft metal (lead?),and they are small and i mean small!!!!

I`ll offer the sunderlands wingspan,and if someone could work the scale out for me,i`ll be a happy person!

Sunderland wing span is bang on 30mm

I have:

4x mosquitos,
3x Bristol beufighters,
2x Avengers,
1x Bristol Blenheim,
3x Havocs(?),
5x Aerocobras(?),
3x Spitfires,
1x paul bolton defiant,
+ 7 unknown types.
+ 3 very small trucks!!!

They all apears to be aprox the correct size in relation to each other.
I`ll pop some pictures up soon for you all to view!

Many Regards,
Emma

It works out to be 1:1146 so I reckon the scale is 1:1000

Thank you for that!

I had forgot about them,but your post has reminded me to dig them out and pass them on to my farther in law.
He is going to have a go at painting them(he is gonna need one hell of a small brush!

).

Thanks again,

Emma.
