Now I'm mainly an aircraft modeller, and I prefere 1:32 scale. Only Airfix
makes cars (Civilian ones) in that scale, military vehicles seems to be in
1:35 everywhere else, and even military helicopters is beginning to be in
1:35 to match the vehicles.
Strangely enough Airfix does not make any airplane kits in 1:32!
Also one wonders 1;:24, 1:48, 1:72 and 1:96 makes sense if you are yoeds to
inches and 1:24, 1:50, 1:75 an 1:100 would make sense for metric users. Why
then are many aircraft in 1:32 instead of 1:36 that would fit the "Inch"
marked? Is it because many photocopiers can enlarge a 1:48 scale drawing to
1:32 but not 1:36?
Not everything makes sence, and perhaps that's a good thing.

Post by Gernot HassenpflugSounds like you are describing my personal modelling progress there
Rufus!! Nostalgia has a value all of its own.
Speaking of Nostalgia, just started on a Challenger II from Airfix in
1:35(!) - why is it that the Brits seem to be the only one not
accepting this is the universal scale for ground vehicles?
