A new brand from Czech Republic is offering a range of 3D printed aircraft accessories, including ladders, wheel chocks and exhaust nozzles:

These products aren't particularly cheap, but the quality is impressive, especially considering they sell actual prints, and the required clean up is minimal.
Here's an inbox review of their 1/72 and 1/48 MiG-21 ladders: https://www.kfs-miniatures.com/mig-21-ladder-and-chocks-lp-models/

I've got some of these sets, specifically for the Mig 29, 21 and Su 22.

I can confirm that these are a quality item, with minimal clean-up required. Definitely an easier option than previous build using an etch set....

So well recommended. 

 

Cheers,

Got their F-4 set from the “big H”. Very impressed with the quality. Ready to use. Good bye photoetch!

I ordered two sets and both were warped, so not really impressed so far.

That’s a bummer. Didn’t know 3D printed stuff was prone to warping, as is resin. Sounds like a quality control problem since mine was OK. I still plan to order two more and we will see what happens. There won’t be a bright future if a uniform level of quality cannot be assured.
