Arrived last week, I'd not heard of this book until I came across a mention of it when researching Roland C.II markings.

For £38 it's a lot of book chock full of frankly far more detail on the operation of the various aircraft than I'd ever need. Containing 400 heavy glazed pages it's a high quality production.

Regards
Russell

     Found one at last; a truly magnificent book and highly recommended.



    I got it through Abe Books in the US, shipped from Half Price Books of Dallas, Texas. The price was far below what I had seen on Amazon etc. in the end about $65 US including a "Brokers fee" I got nailed with. Although described as used, in "good" condition I'd rate it much higher, it's like new! :) :) :)

Red Baron...you may wish to consider the following effect for the Saturn rocket....I saw this on the IPMS NSW Facebook site and I thought it very effective...

Since I came here and got really into WWI modeling  I got a subscription to Windsock. I was pleasantly surprised to find the new issue is out along with the newest datafile. Also got some more camera gear and finally my Rexx exhausts came in. I have looked for these since I heard of them a couple of years ago. Well found them and got 6 for different kits. They are grown metal I think and are awesome. The 2 close ups are the exhaust for my Roland D. VI.

Doing the Wingnut Happy Dance!  Arriving today, this was ordered just a few hours before the free shipping plug was pulled.  :)
