Steve,
I agree with you about FlyPast, but I think that they have left the path they started on many years ago.
When I got interested in aircraft I picked up a copy of FP in 1983 or so, I was stunned that people could recover aircraft wrecks in your own backyard. I was hooked and since then have collected every issue printed, it took some years though to get the very first few issues.
For several years the magazine was packed with stories about aviation archeology but then it stopped and FP became a general magazine. Personally I think that Aeroplane has the best news and togehter with FP also the best articles. If they would bring back coverage of aviation archeology in Europe then it cannot be beaten.
Ken Ellis, please take note
Cheers
