Classic Wings Vol.25 #2 (2021)
 
In this issue we look at a couple of American fighters which followed dramatically different paths, the P-38 and P-39. Several examples of the former are under rebuild in Australia and we take a look at this initiative, whilst just the third airworthy example of the latter flew in NZ recently. Here we get a feel of what it is like to fly this unconventional machine through the experiences of test pilot Frank Parker. A fighter from an earlier war is spotlighted, the lovely Sopwith Pup was well liked by all who flew it and it excelled in the early years over the trenches and at sea. The type has also been very popular in modern times with numerous machines of varying quality being built and flown. Few reach the standard of The Vintage Aviator and it is their magnificent examples which feature throughout the article. Our Mystery aircraft is the sleek and somewhat obscure pre war Fiat G.5 and we round out the edition with an overview of Classic Fighters air show which saluted the remarkable exploits of some of the greatest aviatrix of the past.
 
Classic Wings was created in 1994 as the culmination of many years of wanting to see a vintage/warbird magazine that was created for owners, restorers, pilots as well as enthusiasts of these machines, by people who are themselves participants at all levels of these activities.
