MV Lenses. Through years of research, consultation, test fits and focus groups I have determined the following sizes:

 

1/32 scale aircraft recognition lights, amber, red, green. PN (LS) 800 - 3.2mm dia

1/32 scale aircraft landing lights. PN (LS) 116 - 3.0mm dia

 

1/48 scale aircraft recognition lights, amber, red, green. PN (LS) 502 - 2.2mm dia

1/48 scale aircraft landing lights. PN (LS) 280 - 2.1mm dia

 

1/72 scale aircraft recognition lights, amber, red, green. PN (LS) 500 - 1.3mm dia

 

1/24 or 1/32 scale aircraft formation lights, blue. PN (LS) 203 - 2.18mm dia

 

Best - Rick
