Arrived today from eBay

Modern Combat Aircraft 15, Hawker Hunter by Robert Jackson

After a quick flick through the book I found a couple of pictures of the Sidewinder installation on a Mk.4 in a gun pack replacement set up.

Arrived in the post yesterday, the 3rd Boxed Set of 'Schlock Mercenary', yay!
Not the cheapest, but it'll provide the two of us hours of enjoyment and giggles.
And it's pretty good Space Opera, too.  :thumbsup:

I saw it in Smiths in Glos today Chris.

I didn't get it as my hands were full, but it looks a hefty tome for a zine.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

Yup some of these bookazines are quite hefty and certainly good value for money

Arrived today

Warplane Classic No.1
SEPECAT Jaguar by Andy Evans  :thumbsup:

On a quick skim through this book contains lots of information on the various versions produced and some information about the squadrons that operated them. Also a set of 1/72 plans which will come in useful to me later.

Still haven't seen this volume )or the first one), in my local Smiths.  Might have to find them online.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

It literally only just came in Mossie and it's a fairly large branch.
