I just returned from the United States where, as we have done every year for the past thirty, we attended the IPMS USA National convention. It was also my own personal 30th anniversary of my first Nationals this year.

The Modern Lad: P-51D Mustang, Eduard in 1/72 Scale
The world is changing, and so are we. It might sound like a cliché, but it's true in every aspect of society's evolution. The world and society are evolving at an unprecedented pace, and our industry is no exception. Over the past thirty years, we've seen tremendous technological as attitudinal shifts, which have significantly impacted both the production and the use of model kits. These developments influence and shape each other, resulting in new requirements for modern plastic kits. What are these requirements, and how have we addressed them in the new 1/72 scale P-51D Mustang kit?

The ‘Double Strike’ mission of the 8th AF on Schweinfurt and Regensburg on August 17th, 1943 is among the most famous air operations of World War II in Europe. Not perhaps in so much as its scope, where it was surpassed many times during the months that followed, but in its significance in the development of strategic bombing attack planning and, above all, in terms of losses. Of the 376 B-17s involved, sixty were lost and over ninety others were seriously damaged for the loss of thirty German fighters.

Air War in Ukraine - One Su-57 Less
In this installment, we will cover the period from June 1 to June 30. Both sides were preparing for the anticipated inclusion of F-16 fighter jets in the Ukrainian Air Force. The Ukrainian side continued clearing the airspace for them, targeting Russian airfields, radars, and air defense systems. In one of these operations, they managed to strike the latest Russian Su-57 fighter jet. Russia also attempted massive attacks on Ukrainian airfields where it expected the F-16s to be deployed.

Tail End Charlie
After returning from the IPMS USA National Convention 2024, held in Madison, Wisconsin, I was determined to write about the the most impactful moment that I experienced during the trip. No matter how much I think about it, what struck me most this year was the level of popularity we enjoyed from the American modelers at the event. I'll try to convey this to you through several examples. Throughout the year, I man the Eduard booth at many modeling exhibitions, where I meet and chat with large number of modelers, so I have heard a lot of opinions I can evaluate.
