Editor Kevin Crozier talks through what is included in the February issue of RCM&E.
Our Iberian correspondent, Arnaldo Correia makes a welcome return to RCM&E as he takes a close look at a third scale Nieuport Triplane built by Mário Vilaça. Next, we continue the WW1 theme as Mats Johansson describes his lightweight FE2b for Indoor Open Scale.
We are also very pleased to welcome Logic RC, distributor of Horizon Hobby products, back into the RCM&E fold, starting a bunch of new reviews with a look at E-flite’s diminutive Micro Scrappy bush plane. Next, Alan Williams transports us to Wales for Lleyn Model Aero Club’s annual ‘Bring & Fly’ fly-in. Then it’s over to Steve Nash’s workbench to take a look at a couple of simple building aids. Chris Williams (Scale Gliding) reports from the last White Sheet Scale Day of 2025 and then we hand over to Tony Nijhuis as he introduces our pull-out Pro-Plan for his latest EDF jet, the swing wing GR4 Tornado.
The second half starts with Thorsten Häs as he concludes his report from the ‘Segelflugmesse 2025’ (Glider Fair) held in Schwabmünchen, southern Germany. Dick van Mourik keeps things continental as he looks at the origins of a famous German kit, the Robbe Mäxi. Finally, our second regular column for this issue falls to Dave Goodenough (One Man & His Shed) who adds a pair of second-hand models to his already expansive flying fleet.
I hope you enjoy reading it all.
Happy Flying!
