I still don't have the previous mag.... I could not find any for sale over in Western Australia. Time to take up a subscription I think.

I get mine from a stationery shop in East Perth on Hay St.

PM sent. Thank you for the opportunity sir, I look forward to reading the progress on the Condor and Flak Bait (the Marauder so desperately deserves some recognition). Would love to see one of the preserved early model Marauders in a "Silver Fleet" polished scheme.

The Flak-Bait article was very enlightening and has some excellent photos. A great read for sure.
