Airplane mags: do you buy them?
After collecting years of magazines, I have effectively stopped buying them. Seems to me all I'm getting is a rehash of the same ole stuff. Tons of ads-all of whom are having a SALE! A quick and dirty review of a new kit. A couple of basic 'how to's' which seem geared to the beginner. The 'helpful tips' are often of benefit. My least favorites are the " Joe Jet scratchbuilt the unique landing gear'-and that's it one shot, almost never any in- depth info. I like to scratch build things. I have yet to see an article on building oleos, air cylinders, gear doors, seems like it's all geared to get me to buy from one of the advertisers. And then there's the AMA mag..... I get more info here, how about you?
