Turned parts for aircraft models also reach the less usual sizes, chiefly display-case 1:144 and giant 1:24. Collectors of cabinet miniatures will find 1:144 pitot tubes for the L-29 Delfin, L-39 Albatros, Su-33 and the Canberra, while builders of large airframes get Hispano cannon for the Spitfire and a 1:24 Mosquito pitot. The more extreme the scale, the more brass stands out against moulded plastic.

At 1:144 a pitot tube is often the only upgrade a miniature will ever get, which is precisely why it is worth fitting. Cabinet machines live in 1:144 aircraft model kits, the mainstream sizes sit in turned parts for aircraft models, and fighters at this scale also take 1:144 turned metal barrels.
