The latest Windsock Datafile provides distinct local interest for me, as the subject is so closely linked with the Supermarine works just across the Solent from Castle Aeroscale:
"WINDSOCK DATA FILE No 159 - AD FLYING BOATS
by C A Owers
The 1917 AD Admiralty flying boat was one of several designs by the talented Harris Booth and it became the best-known and most successful of them. Colin Owers presents the wartime history of the type as well as its post-war use in several nations with a rare collection of over 45 archive photos that cover not only the original AD, but the reconfigured Channel boats that followed Both types are fully covered in the narrative and across a dozen pages are detailed 1:48 and 1:72 scale drawings
by Marty Digmayer plus there are nine exotic new colour profiles by Ronny Bar. With a stirring cover painting by Paul Monteagle, our 159th DATA FILE is a unique addition to the popular series.

Available now at £11.75 plus post and packing from Albatros and selected outlets Worldwide Also available on money-saving subscriptions!."


Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.
