The Joy of Research
features and reference material covering
quite a spectrum of aircraft types and era’s.
We have modern jets in the shape of the
F/A-18D, vintage fighters like the Super
Mystere and Sabre, and World War II aircraft
in the shape of the P-51D and Ju-87. We
also like to bring you something a little
unusual and with that in mind we have
Andrew Root’s imaginative F4U-1a Corsair ‘Catching
the Wire’ vignette, Jezz Coleman’s ‘Folded Wing
Fighter’ Hellcat and Mario Serelle’s ‘Cat on the Cat’
F-14 deck scene. So I hope you enjoy all we have to
offer this time, and as always……
Happy modelling
find one of the real pleasures
of modelling is researching the
background, weaponry and
operations of the particular kit I’m
building, and thankfully the amount of
information that is now available to the
modeller is sometimes staggering! This
can come via the Internet, magazines,
and books or indeed by actually speaking to pilots
or technicians that have worked on, or flown
that particular type. I find it fascinating to garner
that little snippet of information, on perhaps a
weapons fit, or maybe an antenna placement that
adds just that extra touch of realism to a build. The
possibilities are endless!
With that in mind, once again this month I am
privileged to bring you a superb selection of build
