AMP NEWS / Re: CLOSING DOWN
« Last post by dougie47 on 22 Dec , 2022, 12:47 »
Hello folks,
I hope everyone continues their interest in U-boats and modelling after the AMP forum closes. The end of AMP has been on the cards for a while now due to the infuriating tax changes and our PE supplier going out of business.

As well as working on U 393 and U 509, I aim to complete my last U-boat research project, which is to bring all the modifications and identification features of the various types into one pdf. The previous articles on U-boat modelling are now available at -
https://www.uboatarchive.net/Modeling/Articles.htm
Without AMP I would not have written many of the articles and hope the information will prove useful well after the end of AMP. Hopefully some of our products have been useful too.
Have a Merry Christmas.
Best regards,
Dougie

Hello Mr. Tore and all of my very Dear Friends,


This will be my very last Christmas Card on the AMP Website for this year of 2022 to you all. I understand that the AMP Website will be shut down when we celebrate the New Year of 2023. I am so very grateful for the opportunity to have become a friend and a colleague of Mr. Tore Berg-Nielsen and all. Together, over many years of sharing knowledge with Mr. Tore Berg-Nielsen, Maciek Florek (Deceased 2nd August 2017), Simon J. Morris, and Mark Hessburg, I was able to compile their wealth of knowledge and to create the book; "Skizzenbuch: U-Boat Type VII C Project." I started this project as a novice with a steep learning curve because I only had questions and no answers. These friends and contributors were patient with me and answered all of my sometimes dumb questions; for their support I will be forever and eternally grateful. With my bitter sweet memories of long nights working with my colleagues on the AMP Website: Thank you!


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all, and many more years to come...

Kind Regards,
Don_

Wow! can I fly it? ;D

Be my guest!  I certainly am not inclined to climb aboard that beastie, though.  :D

Hello Ron,
I am really sorry to hear of the loss of your mother, please accept my condolences. I hope things are going okay with your father.

Updates on your diorama would be welcome, I like the street lamp which is illuminated. A nice touch. I should point out that the AMP forum will be closed at the end of this month, with the next week or two so that folks can save information from various posts before the forum goes down.

Cheers,
Dougie
