So we’ve hit a Century!
The one hundredth issue of AIR Modeller would have been hard to
imagine back in 2005 when the first ground-breaking issue hit the press
with the Editor’s vision of a sister publication to AFV Modeller with big,
bold images of the best aircraft modelling from around the World.
Modelling has changed a lot over the years (and the six-hundred or so
articles we’ve brought you!) as we embrace the digital age with on-line
discussion groups, highly detailed kits and now 3D printing technology
this really is a golden-age of modelling.
Whether you’ve been with us since the start of our journey or you’ve
jumped on-board recently we thank each and every one of you for your
continued support and best wishes for 2022!
New Year, New Look
You may have spotted the change on our cover this issue as we have reached the end of our sponsorship
arrangement with Meng Models. We will of course continue to work with our friends at Meng in a more informal way.

‘Armour Scale’ Bf 109 G6 from Border Models.
Obviously aimed at the diorama builders we
thought we should oblige...ever fancied
doing a diorama?
