Hello Marcus,

If we had one, off course you could buy one, but this year we did not released a new SMS Europe, next year there will be another edition of the SMS Europe.

I was convinced SMS Europe is published yearly. Was I simply wrong? Or maybe there were any special obstacles in publishing SMS-E this particular year.
Does this year make an exception or does it prove the rule? Am just curious... ;)

Hello,

Due to the low amount of sold publications in 2010 we decided not to make a SMS EU 2011. At this moment we are discussing if we want to make a new SMS EU 2012, if yes how it would look like.

As always we are open for suggestions for the new edition.

One think that always troubled me a little bit, was the mention in many cases of all the planes/helicopters of one kind, active and preserved/stored/etc.
But, I think, for this kind of information, we have EMOOS :wink:
Otherwise, it is not clear, how many items are still active.

I would say, let the active and stored in the SMS, but not the permanently preserved/instructional/destroyed/etc.
I know, that again, it would not be ideal but maybe it´s better to separate the SMS more from the EMOOS.

I hope, you understand what I mean with my bad English :wink:

Something else, in some countries, I believe, you are mentioning the Police/Border Guard/etc. and in some not. I suppose, that is because of the big amount of work to do so and keep the database updated. Am I right? Maybe, they should be all in or not?

By the way, the idea to include the Orbat and the old serials, was very good :D

Third, how about the idea to include planes all of us see every year frequently in Europe, but are from no-European countries? That could be for example, Middle Eastern Hercules (Jordan, Oman, Kuweit, etc.) or Orion´s (USN, Canada, New Zealand, etc.). Or, the Brazilian VIP fleet (B707, B737, Embraer´s). This kind of planes. The idea to include the Singapore Skyhawk´s was in this direction great!

Hi, sorry to disturb you again with this matter, but how big are the chances that you will publish a new edition this year? Or, at least. next year?

I am looking really forward to a new edition!!! :D :D :D

Would be great if you could inform me about your plans.

P.S.: About suggestions, please see my last post :mrgreen:
