Fliegerhorst is a resin kit manufacturer from Germany mostly known for it''s range of 1/48 scale Luft'' 46 kits. They have updated their website and the most interesting news is that they are working on a 1/32 scale Dornier Alpha Jet kit.

Howdy Jean-Luc,

Thx for posting this. Aside from the Alpha Jet {very reminecent of the Harrier}, I really liked the Comet they offer.

What is the planned cost for the Alpha?

Yeah she’s a great little bird, almost Finch like. They would make great shelf displays as they were painted in some of the wildest paint schemes.

Very reminecent of the Harrier

Yeah she has that Harrier/Phantom look.

Not to start a "flame war" here but, maybe a Bolemic Harrier - a Phantom No.

They are very colorful.

Hi Chuck!

No flame war... on the picture you've posted it's a Folland Gnat not an Alpha Jet.

As for the price of the Fliegerhorst kit, frankly I don't know. I've sent a mail to Herr Kappner but got no answer yet. As soon as I know more I will tell you.

Oops, you are so right - my bad, all those off brand models look alike to me
