If you want to bury your nose in a good read to try to escape the endless sport on TV at the moment, Albatros Productions may have just the thing for you with the latest bi-monthly issue of Windsock. Packed with modelling features, reference material and reviews, Vol. 30, No. 2 is also perfectly timed for the release of Wingnut's new Roland C.II kits with a fascinating article by Ray Rimell exploring the possible finish of the Goldjunge.

Our packed Summer edition!
"The second WS of the year provides enthusiasts with a real tour de force of WWI modelling and reference. Our extended news section leads into our readers' gallery before the issue gets into its stride with really superb large scale RC Avro 504K powered by a fully operational 1:4 scale Bentley rotary engine which flies as well as it looks. Our third Coloured Thinking piece attempts to unravel the controversial colours of the German Roland Cll to support our detailed reviews of Wingnut's recent kit releases. Carefully-selected archive photos and three Ronny Bar profiles add further support. Lance Krieg's -1914 semi-scratchbuilt 1 Taube is a perfect 'Great War' centenary project that will impress and inspire in equal measure. Other highlights include a double page colourspread of post-war International Fokker D.VIls; build notes for a 1 :72 scale OEF D.lll with plans and some great archive images of cockpits and engines; plus reviews of some stunning WWI kits from Wingnut, Encore and Choroszy Modelbud. The issue closes with news of the latest scale figures and growing ranks of WII military vehicles with aviation connections. All this and more in the Summer edition!"
