P 6 - 9:
Nuremberg Show Report –
SAM ‘Special’ exclusive!
Always an exciting time of the year, with new kits
announced from all the major manufacturers at the
world's greatest hobby and industry event. 'Scale
Aircraft Modelling' brings you a photo report with all
the news and reportage from this year's Toy Fair.
P10 - 31:
Market Place
With the help of the editorial team, Assistant Editor
Karl Robinson
compiles ‘SAM’s monthly examination
of the world of modelling, with the latest news, kit and
accessory releases and announcements.
P32 - 37:
Brave Canadian Pegasus
Tony O’Toole
builds and improves the new Revell
1/72 scale Halifax as a 6 Group RCAF Halifax B.II
Series Ia.
P38 - 47:
Aircraft in Profile
Mark Rolfe
provides the six page fold-out feature on
the Lockheed PV-1/Ventura with 1/72 scale plans and
a selection of colour schemes and markings...
... followed by a 'First Impressions' kit build of the
recent Revell 1/48 scale Ventura Mk II kit by
Andy
Scott,
offering some very useful construction advice.
P48 - 51:
‘Fight of the Intruder’
Assistant Editor
Karl Robinson
tackles the new 1/48
scale Kinetic A-6E Intruder, and fighting to put it
together finishes it in US Navy hi-viz colours and fully
loaded with bombs!
P52 - 57:
UN Cyprus Diorama
Derek Griffiths
describes how he researched and built
his award-winning UN Diorama including how the
diorama base was constructed, how the accessories
were sourced, and of course, the actual Whirlwind and
Bell 47 helicopter builds in this two-part feature.
P58 - 65:
First of the Hornets
Guest Editor
Neil Robinson
builds the first of the
Messerschmit Bf 110's successors - the Me 210 –
converted from the Revell/Monogram 1/48 scale
Me 410 kit... with additional plans and colour schemes
by
Mark Rolfe...
P66 - 69:
The way ahead...
W
elcome to the second and last, (sadly for me
at least), issue of ‘Scale Aircraft Modelling’
that I have been given the privilege to guest
edit. It was fun while it lasted, and please note, hardly
an unnecessary italic or quotation mark, nor even the
merest mention of a Spitfire to be seen... I must be
getting better!?!
The Whistling Tit...
...or 'Whistling Wheelbarrow'
as it was politely
referred to in the Officers Mess, but down at ground
level Armstrong Whitworth's mighty Argosy had a
different name.
Richard Mason
reflects upon the last
AW design and looks back at a type that crossed the
line between civilian and military transport design.
P70 - 72:
To paraphrase the Duke of Wellington after the Battle of Waterloo, there
were times when it was a damn close-run thing, and a LOT of midnight oil
has been burned over the past few weeks to get the last two issues ready,
and I want to personally thank ‘SAM’s Assistant Editor Karl Robinson, and
designer Lincoln Rodrigues, as well as all the editorial and printing team at
Guidelines/Regal Litho, for all the help and effort they’ve put in to getting
the February and March issues out. Thank you gentlemen.
‘Old Shakey’
Assistant Editor
Karl Robinson
contributes another
modelling article in the form of the Roden 1/144 scale
Douglas C-124 Globemaster II, resplendent in the
USAF MATS (Military Air Transport Service) colour
scheme.
P74 - 75:
New editor...
The most important bit of news is that a new permanent editor has
been appointed – Gary Hatcher – who will be taking over the editorial hot
seat from the next, (ie April), issue.
Gary is an old friend and colleague, and many of you will know his name
from his work on other publications (sic!), and can now relax, safe in the
knowledge that ‘Scale Aircraft Modelling’ is in good hands. Gary is a very
experienced editor, an aviation enthusiast, and a very accomplished
modeller in his own right, and has lots of new and exciting ideas that he
will be introducing over the next few issues, so 2015 is going to be a VERY
interesting year for ‘SAM’.
As for me, I shan’t be fading back in to total middle-aged obscurity
again, as Gary has asked if I would join the ‘SAM’ team and contribute the
occasional article from time to time, which I would love to do.
However, I do also rather like the idea of sitting back and waiting for my
favourite magazine to drop through the letter box every month, without
having been SO closely involved with its production...
Au revoir,
Paint it Black
Dean Large
builds Arii’s 1/144 scale SR-71 Blackbird...
... and paints it black – well almost all of it!

Book Shelf
Our monthly book review section, kicked off with a
blatantly, and justifiably proud, round up of the latest
Warpaint
titles, including the epoch-making 100th
publication!
P82:
Neil Robinson
ex-Guest Editor
Next Issue
An announcement of what we plan to have in the ‘new
look’ April 2015 issue!
Erratum
Before I sign off completely, I need to rectify an oversight in the Greek
Buckeyes article in the February issue...
The two photos of the pilot pre-flighting the T-2E and the photo of the
Ready Flight apron at Kalamata on p48, and the in-flight photo at the
bottom of page 49, were taken by Kirk Paloulian, before and during his
flight with No 363 Squadron HAF, and should have been credited to him.
My apologies Kirk.
Keep up with SAM on Facebook for a calendar of
important events as well as what is coming in future
issues of the magazine.
