A Question of Balance
mix of other features presented in a style that you just
don’t get in any other magazine!
I also want to introduce you to a new series from Neil Atterbury
of ‘Four Elements Photography’. Neil will be providing some
atmospheric and exciting images for your enjoyment, and he kicks
things off this month with a look at the iconic Avro Vulcan. Next
month it will be the English Electric Lightning and as many readers
also take aviation photographs, Neil will bringing a ‘Photo-
Workshop’ series in 2016, so you can hone your techniques for the
airshow season ahead! Other highlights this month are Bob Cantrell’s
big scale Hawker Typhoon, Adam J. Philipp’s ‘Flying Tank’ and
Any Leffler’s MH-6 ‘Little Bird’.
So I hope you continue to enjoy the new style of Model
Aircraft, and happy modelling!
ne of the things I wanted to achieve when I
took over reigns at Model Aircraft was to
bring the right balance of reference articles
and model builds, looking at both
contemporary and historic subjects. I feel it is important
for articles and models to be relevant, which is the main
reason that you will see a number of ‘themed features’
in every issue, where you have a reference article
followed by a model build on the subject. For example,
this month Malcolm Lowe takes an historic look at the
Beaufighter, and this is followed by builds
from Chris McDowell and Angel Esposito.
Likewise our Model Aircraft Extra on the
Grumman Intruder and our Combat Edge
feature on the SEPECAT Jaguar gives you a
concise package of modelling and source
material. Built around these is an eclectic
