ClareWentzel Posted February 14, 2015 Report Posted February 14, 2015 I just noted from the Rare Plane Detective ad that John Burns passed away Feb. 1. To those who are wondering who he is, he published PAK-20 - Plastic Aircraft Kits of the 20th Century and Beyond. His books were great references for checking out kits and kit values.
ghodges Posted February 14, 2015 Report Posted February 14, 2015 He will be missed! He was a fine gentleman who really advanced the science of kit collecting. That's right, it's a scientific endeavor! That's what I tell my wife and I'm sticking to it! :D GIL

ClareWentzel Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Posted February 20, 2015 A good addition Michael. It sure looks like lots of modelers have given their condolences to the family. I hope that they are pleased to see how John's work has affected so many in a positive manner.
