Wingnut Wings Next Releases
According to an email from Dave at Wingnut Wings, they do not have release dates, or order of release, for their next series of aircraft. No mention of what the status of the releases are either (i.e. waiting for shipment from manufacturer, waiting for molds to be finished). Will have to check weekily on their WEB site for updates.

Hi All
I have a suspicion that somewhere in New Zealand is a warehouse full of the next releases. If these kits are being produced by the Chinese then the price breaks are only going to be good when large quantities are produced so small low number productions are definitely going to be a no no. Wingnutwings can release them as and when the previous releases are near to being sold out. These guys are definitely buisness men as well as enthusiasts so I can imagine their marketing schedules have been worked out well in advance. The price in China for quantity production can easily be one tenth or less of what we are used to paying in the west and the quality from China can be extremely high. So get the tracker dogs out and find that warehouse to keep us wingnutters happy. Only one problem dogs areŽnt much use over water, is the warehouse on the south island or the north ? Keep up the good work Wingnut wings.
All the best from a boiling hot Vienna
Andrew

Next issue of Windsock??
Gentlemen:
I have a sneaking suspicion that the release of the next batch of WNW models is to coincide with the next issue of Windsock, when Ray interviews the people at WNW. Just a wild guess. What the hell is the next issue date? I sure would like to see that R.E.8!
I am impatient also.
Gloomy skies,
Dan-San

Dan-San, didn't they have an entire issue of Windsock, back in March I believe it was, devoted entirely to Wingnut Wings? So, what will be different in this upcoming edition of Windsock?

I was a little disappointed in the WNW issue. It was all reprints of WNW stuff, from the website and instruction sheet etc. Step by step builds put together by the WNW guys. I was hoping we'd have in depth reviews and some new resources for their kits.
Maybe in the next issue?

As to the next WNW release, my guess, and a guess only, is that they may bein the late Nov/early Dec period just in time for us to buy ourselves our Christmas presents.
And yes, I check their site almost daily too!
