| Nice model Olof, I enjoyed the working features and the colour scheme is fantastic, very industrial looking. (...) I think the prototype has 520HP, which is pretty good going. They generally say that 10HP per ton is a good power to weight ratio. (...) (19 years ago, 24-May-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)

| (...) I have some pictures on my Brickshelf account: (URL) I have done more work since these were taken, mainly on the wing and nose (wing covering, engine mounts, nose-wheel and cockpit) and I started out 1 1/2 years ago by "laying the keel" in (...)

| (...) The weight limits vary greatly, EU standard is 40 tons I think, and I beleive Switzerland (not in EU) has 28 tons, but this is what most trucks look like here in Sweden: (URL) 25,25 meters long (82,8 feet) and 60+ metric tons (138000 lbs) (...)

The truckdriver is an old schoolfriend of my father so I have known him for many years, and had a lot of nice rides along with him, both in- and outside Denmark. I do not work in the (...)

| Hi Anders, This one gets my highest praise: When I saw the thumbnail on Brickshelf I didn't think it was LEGO, but instead assumed it was a photo of the real truck, perhaps as a building reference. Then I clicked on the gallery and it still wasn't (...) (19 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)

I never really got into model team because I thought it restricted functionality, but your truck disproves that (...) (19 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)

| (...) This prototype, if I read the info right, has like half that HP... Denmark is not completely flat by any means, either. Lots of gear jamming there I bet. One thing that I didn't comment on before is the rather (to my view) bizarre axle (...) (19 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic, FTX)
