Every catalogue has a corner for the aircraft subjects that refuse to fit the standard ladder of scales, and this is ours. Expect oversized instrument panels around 1:2 that hang on a wall like aviation art, a 1:12 F-104 cockpit section built as a bust rather than a whole aeroplane, airframes measured in millimetres instead of ratios, and jets such as the Phantom in the odd 1:96. None of them line up neatly beside a 1:72 shelf, which is exactly why they stand out in a collection. Treat this page as the curiosity cabinet of the aircraft range.
What appears here depends entirely on which specialities manufacturers choose to tool, so the mix shifts over time. If the oversized dial panels caught your eye, the scale-correct equivalents for ordinary builds are gathered under aircraft instrument panels. For the conventional ladder from 1:144 up to 1:24, start at aircraft model kits, and for detail parts to go with any of it, see aircraft model accessories.
