stu knowles Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Hi All, Has anyone had dealings with Doolittle Media recently? They sell plans from the now defunct AMI magazine andthe Flying Scale Models mag and plan range?? I ordered a plan over a month ago. Nothing received and no response to e-mails and phone calls.

Alan Gorham_ Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 That is quite common in my experience of ordering several plans over the years. Sit tight a little longer and it will probably arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RottenRow Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Perhaps the clue is in their name…. Brian. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu knowles Posted March 11, 2023 Author Share Posted March 11, 2023 Thanks guys, Yes the irony in the name had not escaped me. I'll keep trying until I get a response Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin b Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Which plan was it Stu ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lee Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 My only dealings with them of late is that they still publish Aeromodeller magazine to which I subscribe. I've just finished reading the latest, March 2023, edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Gray Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 All I can say is the quality of the plans in the Flying Scale Models mag is far superior than those on the RCM&E plus the Doolittle cut kits seem to be better value than those produced by Sarik.

The only problem is that the magazine (FSM) seems to be getting more and more repetitive. Particularly since Peter Rake died. Even to the point of repeating cover artwork !

stu knowles Posted March 11, 2023 Author Share Posted March 11, 2023 The whole mag content seems to be based on recycling articles from long past and now defunct mags. The plan was a Morane Saulnier N108, which is a bit 'cartoon scale' but a nice looking model, quite compact for a large scale (1/3rd) and without a mass of rigging. It will be the first time that I have strayed from the Sarik plans range. Have to say that their responses and services are much better. Interesting observation Ron, I look forward to inspecting if/when it arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin b Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I agree and am seriously considering stopping my subscription. It's a shame that the new International magazine folded. They seemed much better organised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
