A SENSE OF

BELONGING

ANDY EVANS,

MANAGING EDITOR

andy@modelaircraftmag.com

can hardly believe we are approaching

the end of the year! At this time, usually I

would have been reflecting on the Scale

Modelworld show and resting up my aching

feet! But as it turned out, SMW like much of

2020 fell victim to the pandemic we continue

to live through. However, I look forward to next

years show in both hope and expectation. As

I was mulling over these past months, I got to

thinking what it might have been like if this had

happened thirty years ago, when the internet

was not the force it is now! For most of us I

think, it has become part of our everyday, and

for modellers it is a place for of inspiration,

fellowship and resources. The restrictions on

our lives has also seen an upsurge in people

returning to the hobby, or discovering it either

for the first time, or at least since younger days.

I was recently chatting to a very nice chap who

had emailed me asking about a couple of books

we publish. We then got to talking and it turned

out he had just started his first Airfix kit since,

as he put it ‘he was a lad’, and not to give his age

away, he was saying how much the instructions

had changed, as they no longer said ‘locate and

cement’ on the parts, and you now had to apply

‘decals’ rather than ‘transfers’! Sadly, I also

remember this too! He was also saying how much

the internet had helped him, as he was able to

not only buy a kit or two, but he could also get

information on the aircraft he was working on,

and even watch somebody building the actual kits

he had! But perhaps the most important thing

was that he found a couple of on-line forums

where he could chat to like-minded modellers,

and not only get hints and tips, but feel connected

to a community and had sense of belonging.

As this is the last issue of 2020, and we enter

the festive season, if you are looking for a gift

idea for someone, or just to drop a broad hint

as to something to put in your stocking, then

we have some excellent subscription offers

available, and plenty of books that would fit

the bill. You can find details on our website or

elsewhere in this issue. Can I also, on behalf

of MA Publications as well as David and Tim

wish you the compliments of the season and

look forward to your company again in 2021.
