1:72 is a very common scale on airplane models.
The dimensions on the model would be:
(data on the Goose from American Aircraft
of World War II by David Mondey p. 149)
Wingspan: 14.94 m/72 = 20.75 cm
Lenght: 11.68 m/72 = 16.2 cm
I (Anders) found the model after a fairly simple
search on the internet. Try Altavista!!
I don't have it myself and I don't know if its
the only one available.
Good luck!
