Scale Modelling Now

Jackson’s work is a quality product. The large format and high-quality paper show the photographs and drawings to full advantage.

Air Power History

This is one terrific book for 109 modelers and aircraft historians alike.

This Naturally, as a keen teenaged model maker, I had a Messerschmitt BF109 in my collection, and it was great to see pictures and to read about this iconic German fighter plane again! A worthy opponent of the British fighters that flew against it. Great photos, great history of a great aeroplane.

As an overview of the aircraft and its history this book is good. The profiles I really enjoyed and will be an inspiration to the model builders. The built model section offers good advice on the kits that were available at the time. Overall it is a nice softbound book to have in your collection.

The result of their work is beautifully displayed with a lot of eye for details, for example, engines and the cockpit lay-out. Because the BF 109 is deployed on every battle field between the North Cape and the Sahara, the number of modelling variations is almost unlimited.

Literally each colour of the rainbow passes by. The photo material of the operational deploy as well as of the products of the model builders is extensive and of excellent quality.

The reviews are all well written and accompanied by images of some beautifully built offerings which should provide plenty of inspiration for any scale modeller.

Overall this is another great title in the Flight Craft series and if anything was going to make you want to pick up a 109 kit from the local hobby store, or dig one out from your stash, it’s this book.

KitsandBits Blog, Mark Dale

Like the Spitfire, the Bf 109 is an iconic fighter of WWII and it has encouraged many plastic and resin kits over the years. Many are no longer available, or are difficult to find. This book provides a very good set of reviews of those kits still likely to be available and of enhancement products that turn a good kit from a nice model into a competition grade replica.

There are lots of beautifully finished models shown here, and a final section of 'Modellers' Showcase' with more very nice larger scale kits.

Add the model information to the basic history behind the fame and widespread use of the 109 which makes it an excellent basic groundwork for the modeller, a well balanced and useful addition to the FlightCraft series.
