Inside the October 1992 newsletter

October announces plans for Recon '93, the IPMS Region VII contest at the same Sea-Tac hotel used for the 1992 Nationals. Proposed attractions include an exact-subject, out-of-the-box 1/72 F-4 Phantom class, a “Flights of Fancy” category, 1943-anniversary and Formula One specials, and a display-only area so modelers can participate without entering formal competition.

Local news includes the Lynnwood Hobbyland contest, progress on a planned Fw 190 chapter project, and a report from the Oak Harbor model contest. Product notes mention Polish vacuform kits of Soviet Sukhoi Su-22 and Su-15 aircraft. The editor also previews a trip to the IPMS/UK National Convention, setting up the detailed report that appears in the December issue, while meeting-date changes and a program of slides from the Seattle Nationals round out the chapter business.
