Hopefully, despite the slowed-down interest in the collection, they'd opt to complete the series instead of bailing out halfway.

I'd say allscript have only themselves to blame for any drop in subscription/sales.

Look like almost bad feedback for AllScript.
Juz hope this collection won't stop at middle of issues.

i'm not surprised if it stops half away. In the UK, it stops at issue 40 while SA stops at issue 33 when its suppose to have about 52 issues. And why did they stop? it's because the publishes are as lousy as Allscript. That's why customers got fed up and not interested in buying the helis anymore.

If like that, I think our MY & SG version sure got no Luck.
Juz can pray it at least published all important helis before it stop with no reason.

According to the Malaysian list at http://helicopter-magazine.com/mal/models, the issue 13 Piasecki is already here. Anyone can confirm that?

i tend to agree with you and comrade mikesas1992 on the premature end of the helicopter collection. question is whether we will we get to see the likes of the havoc (#38), comanche (#32), mangusta (#24), super cobra/viper (#19). i think allscript usually brings in 4 models per consignment and would already have/in process issues #13-16. interest is definitely waning but let's just hope they continue bringing in the collection, albeit in smaller numbers.

Personally targeting:

Viper
Mangusta
Comanche
Helix
Mi-8
Havoc
Sea Dragon
(Maybe more, depending on the 'mood for purchase' haha)

Hopefully the series survives through, am sure they're lots of collectors out there hoping for the same as well.

Just did a little research, apparently helicopter magazine in AUS is still going very well. In fact, they have up to 42 issues.

Viper! Will dash to go get it if it really arrives next month! Hopefully no repeat of the Apache unavailability problem.

speaking of the apache, there was a whole box full of apaches at their office! my hands itchy to grab a few more but luckily resisted the temptation.

anyway, reason why i went back to allscript was simply because they were supposed to deliver the blackhawk together with my subscription issues... but didn't. that's why i went over instead of waiting and waiting only to be told later that the blackhawks are out of stock and asking me to choose any of the other models instead! true the other models cost rm20 more, but i want my blackhawk ma.

Wow they must've restocked the Apache.I'd be tempted to grab an extra issue to if i see them biggrin.gif How's the Huey btw? Well put together?

Btw, why grab extra issues you ask? Why to sell them at higher costs in the future ofcourse! icon_idea.gif
(Jokes aside, it will be nice at times to display more than one of an aircraft type in a mini 'squadron')

i know exactly what you mean... but i'll only do that with the rm9.90 blackhawks rather than the rm29.90 apaches! simple equation: 1 apache = 3 blackhawks icon_idea.gif
