25.4 mm = 1 inch

And the inches, feet, yards, miles system is still known properly as Imperial.... :D

. . . as has already been said 25.4 mm = 1 inch.

Also, to get a £ sign using an American keyboard key Alt 0163 (that is hold down the Alt key and type 0163) to get £££
etc

1850 mm = 72.8 in
1700 mm = 66.9 in
55.4 dm2 = 859 sq.in.
6000g = 212 oz.
108.3 g/dm2 = 35.4 oz./sq.ft.
20-35 cm 2St. = 1.20 - 2.14 cu.in

Based on the figures shown - be ready for a model which has a relatively high wingloading - I review a lot of models for magazines and to be quite blunt - yours will be relatively heavy ,compared to many current offerings.
If you are an accomplished modeler - you already realize this
If not , expect the model to need some care in setting up best flight parameters.
(what's with all the pop up stuff?)

But perhaps the price wasn't in pounds Sterling but in Euros, in which case the symbol gbfan used was quite correct...

... just a thought.
