MORE "TRAIL BLAZERS"!
Frog's excellent "Trail Blazers" series naturally includes a number of biplane models, and the latest such aircraft in this series, the de Havilland D.H.60G Gipsy Moth, forms a most attractive addition to the range. Frog's kit makes up to represent "Jason" in which Amy Johnson made the first solo flight by a woman from England to Australia. Fortunately, the model represents that aircraft in its original form before being modified for record breaking, and in consequence, markings representing almost any Gipsy Moth may be applied to taste. Excellent value at two shillings and sixpence in the United Kingdom, Frog's D.H.60G should find a place in any collection of famous aircraft types.

Trade Notes
Two new "Trailblazers" have arrived from FROG. They are the D.H. 60G Gipsy Moth and the D.H. 88 Comet Racer both in 1/72 scale.
The Moth G-AAAH Amy Johnson's famous 'Jason' in which she became the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia, is beautiful 28 parts kit which builds up into a truly delicate replica of this well known aircraft.

Two de Havillands
Following the Wallace in the "Trail Blazers" series are two "Frog" kits of de Havilland aircraft: the D.H.60G Gipsy Moth and the D.H.88 Comet racer, each selling at 2s. 6d. The former is an excellent model and represents G-AAAH "Jason" in which Amy Johnson made her famous flight to Australia in 1930. Anyone wishing to know more about this particular aircraft might well visit the Science Museum in London where "Jason" is preserved.

A Trail Blazer. The kit actually represented a fairly standard D.H.60G and not, as illustrated on the box art, the modified aircraft flown by Amy Johnson. Neither was it correct for an RAF D.H.60M.
