On the cover:
Top Box artwork from Airfix's recent 1:72 scale Shooting Star kit, 'Saggin Dragon', whose real-life history is related and illustrated on pages 587-8 by Airfix's chief kit researcher, Barry Wheeler. Bottom Fine photograph from Martin Windrow of Airfix's 1:24 scale Messerschmitt Bf 109 constructed according to the super-detailing instructions in PSL's book Classic Aircraft No 2: Messerschmitt Bf 109 (see page 585) by Martin's brother, Richard. The diorama, which is completed by some specially designed figures made by Pat Bird of Series 77, depicts a lunch break by groundcrew of 6 Staffel/JG 51 at Wissant in August 1940. They are working on 109E Werke Nr 5587, flown by Oberfeldwebel Fritz Beek until he was forced down by failing oil pressure on August 24 near St Margaret's Bay, Kent. This diorama is one of the many fascinating exhibits in the privately owned Battle of Britain Museum at Chilham Castle, Kent, which can be visited on any summer Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday or Sunday afternoon, admission free (although there is a small charge tor admission to the castle itself).
