A friend of mine in Sweden has found me one, just negotiating for it now...

Sorry, I did not have the software on this computer to reduce the pics to post them here.
Should be nice for 500 or 750 power...

I'm not quite sure, but it is "regular 91 sized", probably a six or seven foot fuselage. I had a chance to get one a few years back, and I passed. I was really sorry I did. As I understand it, only a handful of kits were made, and none were exported...

Are you making a profit by promoting this kit?

Well all I can say is, if you can get one do it. It would be nice to see some different planes at the meets, like overseas

I know. I am a sucker for the oddball stuff. We managed to make a deal, the Lansen will be on the way, soon. It turns out this may be only one of two that were made. The other one flew great with Byron/R90 power and is being re-engined for turbine. I am trying to find out if a mold exists. If not, I will make arrangements with the designer to have somebody make up a mold from my kit. I would not want to build the only kit in existence. I have zero desire to get into the kit business, but if the designer and some manufacturer reach an agreement, I would be willing to loan the kit. Not that I think the Lansen would be a hot seller!
I agree, you see some really neat, unusual models coming out of Europe and the rest of the world. But there are a lot of neat ones, here, too.

Go for it EASYTIGER!!
I'm working on a AJ-37 Viggen right now, but I keep coming across the Lansen in my research.......what a cool jet! It sort of looks like the result of a P-80 spending the night with a F-86....
I would be interested in a kit should you choose to pursue it.

Here are a couple of links:

Good luck,


John
