@karl Who made those, Karl? Tekno?

@monteverde802 Sorry, Gene - my passion are Teknos!   Made in Denmark 1958-1972.  These are Scania-Vabis 76.  Here are some more Tekno fire related vehicles.   Falck and then Falck-Zonen were their fire rescue service...

Tekno Mercedes fire

@karl  Cool beans, Karl. I have only one Tekno in my collection. I've had it since the 1960's. It's tiny (1/144th scale?) but what grabbed me about it was that it has operating retractable landing gear.

Falck-Zonen fire and rescue also did ambulance service in Denmark.  Here is an earlier Tekno Zonen ambulance plane (based on a real prototype) and larger than your MIG.  So a bit closer to our chosen scale!
