This is the 2nd issue of the year for 2023 (our 37th year of publication). As usual I have to thank those people who have kindly allowed us to reproduce their articles and photos this issue, in particular the following - Garry Shepherdson, Ken Watson via Ed Russell (Red Roo), Ley Reynolds, Andrew Wetzlich, Bruce Chapman, Alan Yee, Roger Lambert, Dave Muir, Gary Wickham, Mick Mirkovic & the AHMWA. Don't forget that all photos and information credited to these individuals are subject to copyright and cannot be reproduced without their written permission. I also am grateful to Ley Reynolds for the review material.

This issue has more of Gary Wickham's excellent modelling and review articles from his 'Scalespot' website. Highly recommended to go to his site at www.Scalespot.com to see the latest. For Gary's articles use the 'back' button to get back to the index page.
