CONTENTS – VOLUME 13 ISSUE 10
H
aving just worked through this month's material, I
have to take my hat off to the various contributors
whose work has made up this issue. It really is one
of the best I’ve seen for ages.
I’m also pleased with the new format, as it enables me to gauge the
content better and ensure that the core historical material is better
represented. In this issue it has been my very great pleasure to cram it in
so tightly that I can guarantee we have more
value per page than we ever have before – if
you’re looking for quality aviation and modelling
journalism, that is.
Historically we have part two of the fascinating eye-
witness account from the Soviet side of the fence in Korea,
along with Tony O’Toole’s in-depth research on the Ventura
Mk II – a subject that gets covered in the modelling section
also. The Anson photo feature gave me no end of pleasure
too, as it is among my very favourite aircraft, ranking up
there with the Fw 58 and the Blackburn Skua.
Modelling and history cross over a few times this month, with the 1/72
MiG-15, 1/48 Ventura and some fascinating insights into a couple of over-
looked Spitfire sub-types. Andy Brooke’s work is redolent of this magazine
in the heyday of Neil Robinson, and he has not only done the research, but
he has built the models too!
Right up to the minute is this month’s helping of modern stuff from
Mike Verier, with a walkaround of the new P-8A at RIAT, along with a
scratch conversion from a Revell kit in 1/144, and this is joined in the
‘Contemporary’ section by a photo report from
Waddington, just to make sure we have
something in for everybody.
So, a packed and essential issue this month.
Plenty of everything for everyone, and lots more
of the same to come!
