Military Aircraft Markings 2024

Post by sschofield » Sun Mar 10, 2024 11:41 am

Good morning all,

As a number of you may already be aware, the final draft of "MAM 2024" was submitted to the publishers last week and is currently off for printing. Expected to be available early April or thereabouts. You can pre-order it from the Crecy website here;

https://www.crecy.co.uk/military-aircraft-markings-2024

As Howard said on the "MAM" group, yes, Crecy are aware that the photo is of the mocked-up cover they sent me for checking and that it has the wrong editor's name on it! That will be corrected in the final edition!

Thanks for supporting me in this venture again, whether as a contributor of data, or a buyer of the book, or even better, both!

regards

Stuart Schofield

Well Done , and a huge thank you for keeping this iconic publication going , which I have bought since the first one.

Every year I fear it will go to the awful on-line format so many have gone , and for me, make it un-readable.
Give me a book anyday !!

Cheers

Thanks for the update Stuart, MM is a staple for most spotters and as a traditionalist myself I far prefer to have a hard copy of something, probably age related😂😂😂

Great news, this has gone with me on every trip for nearly 40 years so good to see its continuing. Another one here who prefers a hard copy !

Another one for the 40 years...been one of these with me on every trip since first putting pen to note book at IAT 83 Greenham Common.

What a start that was to the spotting world.

Great work which is very much appreciated in keeping this great serial book safe in all our bags for another year.

Long may it continue...thank you so very much :thumb:

Regards

Thanks once again for the kind words. It's a mammoth task, especially whilst holding down a full -time job with a 3+ hour round trip commute each day, and, just to add extra spice to proceedings this time round, moving house for the first time in 13 years too next week!

It's also hugely rewarding when the job is complete though (is it ever really complete?) :unsure:

found this on a book shelf in a museum once, absolute gold mine of info, would 100% recommend to anyone with slightly less experience in this hobby, as its effectively the worlds best spotters guide, there is so much info to be gained from having one handy!

thanks for the continued effort in keeping this gem alive!
