I have been buying Aero Modeller as a paper mag for many years. At the start of the Covid-19 due to paper editions being difficult to get I switched to your Electronic one & added Model Engineer & Model Engineering Workshop to it. Before I could only afford one now I get all three. Thank you. Reviewed 20 August 2020
