This issue includes a full kit review by John Parker of the Alexander Engel U212A fully functioning static diving radio controlled submarine, as well as a major new Feature Plan presented by Glynn Guest for HMS Goliath, a semi-scale radio controlled model of an aircraft carrier. In addition, Brian Cook describes his unique LARC, an unusual and very large amphibious road vehicle that is also a fully working model. We also have show reports from Harrogate, Coalville and Doncaster, that all had some excellent model boats on display. Flotsam and Jetsam by John Parker is about the ship on which he travelled to Australia when emigrating from the UK some years ago, so having great nostalgic interest for him.The Gallery is by David Walter and is of the RXLI Lifeboat Collection in the Historic Dockyard at Chatham, always somewhere well worth a visit on a spare day. Dave Wooley with Range Finder includes a visit to a number of mine countermeasures vessels at Liverpool. These are always popular model making subjects because they can be built to quite a large scale and still be a practical size for model boating. Dave Petts looks at rigging and his methods of making it easy for scale sail models in his mini-series.
