By the time this letter finds its way to your mailbox, the storms have subsided and the affected people are trying to re-build their lives once again. We here at Squadron, would like to extend our sincere condolences to the victims. God bless to those affected and their loved ones! Here at our facility in Carrollton, we are preparing for the holidays and restocking the shelves. Of course, as we do every month, we have a bunch of new and exciting products that we would like to introduce. First of all, don’t miss SQM0002 Haunebu II Premium Version. After the success of the first release of the German saucer, the Squadron team is excited to offer a civilian version of the spacecraft. This kit comes with the original plastic but includes replacements to convert the military version into a civilian one. Check out my article on Page 24! Secondly, in our True Details Premium line, we have new A-4 Skyhawk Wheels in 3 scales. TD32205, TD48205 and TD72205. These wheels are derived from 3D patterns and produced in very high-quality resin. These will look great on the new Hobbyboss Skyhawk! After many requests, we are bringing back plastic sheets into our inventory under the Squadron label. Over the span of a few months, we will have several selections of high grade styrene 12”x 6” sheets starting with SQPS001 0.25mm available now (pp. 60). Lastly, in our Squadron Signal Publications, SS10245, SR-71 In Action, the new and completely updated version of the Blackbird book, authored by David Doyle is on our shelves. Designed by legendary Clarence “Kelly” Johnson at the Skunk Works, the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is a legend on its own. Brought into service for high altitude and high-speed missions, the SR-71 could outfly any contemporary aircraft and served in the U.S Air Force from 1964 to 1998. A total of 32 were constructed and 12 were lost due to accidents. None were lost to enemy action. It has held the record of “fastest air-breathing manned aircraft since 1976. Hundreds of pictures and drawings of which many in color. As you can see, many exciting projects available and many more to come.
