We talk about it in the press and on the net:
Matthieu Comas' magazine is now reaching cruising speed with
· news section: letters from readers, research news (on the “Zèbre”), book review and even an “excluded model”… and a report on the team rebuilding an MB152 from scratch
· Two big files: 1° the D.520s Liberated, Issued on the Atlantic (50 pages with scoops like the D.520s of photo-reco) to know everything about the D.520s used by the French on the Atlantic front in 1944-45 from political interference to camouflage through the operations of the various units concerned,
· Then another relatively important file: the "French" P-40 F under the magnifying glass (12 pages with a technical orientation... including plans!)
· The suite (6 pages) of paints and camouflages which materializes as the “carpaccio” article to follow for many issues (how annoying this French mania is! And that is not new…Aviation Magazine in its spotter pages, Fana etc...have largely contributed to popularizing the "carpaccio" among editors...perhaps less among readers)
Conclusion a great file on the D.520 and what a pity for the camouflages and marks…. ©Modelstory 2022
