Quiet Mike Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 These popped up on facebook recently http://lpmodels.eu/index.php?fbclid=IwAR3hs-C0M5P_nhZpPZS9t7VvCPvBBjM83Sam-RI4CxHEIGt42qoMPy8QyCQ https://www.facebook.com/René-van-der-Hart-Scale-Models-250725525692334/photos/pcb.923254011772812/923253848439495 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the ladders available are cockpit entry ladders for specific types whereas this looks like a generic hanger type. Time to break out the microstrip and microrod and start scratchbuilding. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f111guru Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Gary may want to give this site a look see under the ground equipment link. http://www.aim72.co.uk/ And as @Nigel Bunkersays. you may end up building from scratch.

fatalbert Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 We call them giraffes, or steps 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viscount806x Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 We called them 'Giraffe' too. We had one at Leeds/Bradford in the BKS/Northeast days. Used to spook me a bit because they flexed quite a lot and it was a long way up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
