SIMON CRAGG Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Just a few lines to say what a great read the latest BMFA News is IMHO. I stopped purchasing the modelling magazines years ago, and find that the BMFA News is a great way of keeping up to date with the latest from the various branches of our wonderful hobby. Well done to everybody who puts the magazine together!. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futura57 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 It's a shame you don't purchase other modelling magazines any more. Is there any particular reason? I guess you are not tempted by the free plan in RCM&E. 😥 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMON CRAGG Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 Luckily, we have a great club hut. The hut has become a magnet for all things aviation, including model flying magazines which once read instead of being binned, are left in the hut. Inevitably I occasionally get to read a few interesting (to me) articles., We have a member who has created an A-Z of RCME free plans going back many years, which is held in a cabinet in the hut. I have to say, that building from plans is a dying art in our club, mainly due to the extortionate price of balsa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you are not tempted by the free plan in RCM&E. 😥 RCM&E was never the same after it moved to the big format and dropped the electronics bit 😀 Like Simon, I stopped buying model magazines about 20 years ago as I realised there was no longer anything in them that I was interested in. The free plans got thrown out with the magazine when the next issue came out. I still build from plans, but can find all I want on Outerzone where there is a bigger choice of subjects, and I usually end up modifying the plans anyway. The internet and the BMFA mag provide all the information I need to keep up to date with latest developments. Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
