Albatros Publications To Cease Publishing

[Amo Aero]

Ray Rimmel's Albatros Publications publishing is temporarily suspended. Ray announced that after 30 years of continuous publishing he is taking a break to "recharge his batteries" and to research future titles.

I suggest you add the word "temporarily" to your headline.

Also on various forums, and a flyer in the last Windsock of the year.

Thanks Paul. Not good news.

They have lasted a lot longer than a lot of publications and so I cannot blame him. What amazed me was the price being asked for the limited availability titles. My datafiles in the bookcase seem to be worth more than I thought!

We all need a break to recharge our batteries; his production schedule seemed amazing.  I was either seeing the Windsock magazine coming out, or a huge Special, modeling the Wingnuts kits or a new Datefile.  Then there was his entry into doing a model dinosaur magazine.  

 

I'd love to see him do some pre-WW1 types as Datafiles;  the Bristol Boxkite, the early AVRO aircraft, etc. but that just me dreaming.
