8.4 meter ASH-31, according to the credits - about 1/4 scale?


The ASH 31 is 18/21 meter - 1/4 scale would be the equivalent of 33 meters!

1:2.5 is sometimes a scale that gets used. It is likely this one from
H Model since I didnt see anything from Rosenthal

Amazing models that look very scale like, and yet clearly no attempt to
make to scale some of the details you'd see when it's on ground. The
propeller mast and it's doors, and the landing gear are what I noticed.

At least to me, a 26 E owner, those details are more important than the
pilot figure in the cockpit.
