“A Modeller’s Guide to the Ju 88 G-6” Reaches First Draft!

I’m pleased to report that all the basic layout work for our next title, A Modeller’s Guide to the Ju 88 G-6 Night Fighter by John McIllMurray, is now complete! The final proofing and editing phase should only take a few days, so the official release is imminent!

And for the curious, the final page count of the main volume is 1017. Yes, I said main volume. The book has now been split into 4 files: the 1017-page main volume, Appendix 1: Ju 88 G-6 Loss Record (25 pages), Appendix 2: Ju 88 G-6 Pilot Claims (31 pages), and Ju 88 G-6 Scale Plans, Drawings & Stencil Guides (79 pages). The 3 additional files required different formatting to the main document, necessitating the split. This allows all the material to be presented in an optimal fashion.

As I type this, our illustrious author John McIllMurray is experiencing a debilitating health issue, and is awaiting emergency surgery to fuse two vertebrae in his neck. Our collective best wishes go out to John for a successful outcome and a speedy recovery.

  1. Beautiful work ! It joins serious historical study, walk around-like docs, building of a model, interesting annexes to the historical section, plans and profiles going into details. My compliments to everyone involved in this project!

    1. Many thanks!
