Platform and flight ladders

As some (if not most) of you know, I am working a (and have plans for a few) diorama(s). I need different platform and flight ladders for this (these) diorama(s). I went looking for free paper models of platform and flight ladders, and could not find any that fit my needs. So, I decided to design and make my own, and yes, I will be sharing them in the DOWNLOAD SECTION once they are finished and ready for distribution.

Here are the photos of what I am currently working on, This is the Hangar Ladder:

Parts sheets.

The parts laminated.

The parts cut out.

There is still more work to be done, but it is a start.

Since most of the people here build militaria, I thought that there would be a need for such. Granted, there are plastic and metal ladders available, but there are none in paper. So, I figured that I would share what I have designed for my needs with the community here for free.
