Future features planned for Scale Aviation Modeller will include items on construction methods, modelling techniques and product surveys. We also intend to carry scale plans on a regular basis. It is our aim to cater for all tastes ranging from pre-World War 1 to the present day. There will be a readers’ letters page for the exchange of ideas and information. A unique service for Scale Aviation Modeller will be its free advertising for individuals. Advertisements should be a maximum of 40 words, typed or written clearly on a separate sheet of paper and should include the name and address of the advertiser. We will feature as many as possible in each issue.
As the editor of this new title, I am concerned to provide what the modeller wants. If you have any ideas or comments on Scale Aviation Modeller, please write to me at the editorial address given in the masthead on the left. In the meantime, thank you for purchasing Scale Aviation Modeller and 1 hope that it will quickly become an indispensi-ble reference in your library.
