Not quite accurate.
The names are in bold face, not caps, ie. Brifaut, not BRIFAUT. Countries, aircraft manufacturers and kit manufacturers are also done in bold face.
It was strictly something that the publisher in France did. The British, American and Italian editions followed suite.
Got to admit that I didn't even notice it when I proofed it.
I wonder if it's time for another book? Would have to leave out the check list for two reasons.
1.Current 1/72 aircraft model database has 14,500 kits, vehicles 4335 and thousands of listings for other subjects.
- The check list is out of date the minute it goes to the publisher. That's why I publish ESM 72.
Still have a small supply of the hardcover American editiion for those interested. The color photos never go out of date.
E-mail me for information.
