*NOW TAKING PRE-ORDERS! ETA EARLY NOVEMBER*
I am delighted to announce that Chandos Publications will soon publish ‘Axis Wings volume 5’, the fifth in our Luftwaffe and co-belligerent air forces compendium series.This issue sees the return of some contributing authors, but we are also pleased to have several new faces on board. This is precisely what we were aiming for when we launched this series, and we welcome the submission of stories, photographs and comments for future editions.

*SHIPPING TO THE EU – NEW RULES AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION
As of 12 August 2026, new shipping rules came into force for all businesses worldwide that ship items to the European Union. Any business that sends items of any kind to the EU that requires packaging (in other words, every business, and every item) now needs a recycling licence for each EU country. As a result, I have applied for licences for some of the biggest EU countries that I deal with. This is a long and complicated process, and it isn’t free. I am still waiting for several licences to be issued, and unfortunately that means that for now, for the EU market I will be able to ship items to GERMANY AND THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND ONLY once the books are delivered from the printer.
IN ADDITION I HAVE APPLIED FOR RECYCLING LICENCES FOR THE FOLLOWING COUNTRIES:
BELGIUM
AUSTRIA
FRANCE
NETHERLANDS
ITALY
NORWAY
These licences are all still pending. As soon as I have them I will update my shipping policies for the EU.
IN THE MEANTIME I AM OFFERING EU CUSTOMERS IN THE ABOVE LISTED COUNTRIES THE OPTION TO ‘EXPRESS AN INTEREST’. – Simply email me at
chandosenquiries@gmail.com with the subject heading PLEASE RESERVE A BOOK, let me know your name and email address / contact details, and I can then set aside a copy of the book and let you know when I am able to ship it. Please note that I do not yet know when this will be, but hope to have the recycling licences I need by the end of this year (2026).
If you can’t wait that long, I am still dealing with my wholesalers in Europe and around the World – if you are an EU customer, I recommend dealing with the following wholesale shops:
France – Lela Presse
Germany – Berliner Zinnfiguren
Germany – Sound Beucher
I sincerely apologise – this ridiculous rule has affected thousands of small businesses Worldwide. Until the system is reviewed or overhauled, then I am limited to sending books to the above named EU countries only.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NEW SHIPPING / RECYCLING RULE DOES NOT AFFECT COUNTRIES IN EUROPE THAT ARE NOT PART OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, OR ANY OTHER COUNTRIES WORLDWIDE. IT APPLIES ONLY TO THE EU MEMBER STATES.
As usual we will be working with our Global distribution partners:
France – Lela Presse
Germany – Berliner Zinnfiguren
Germany – Sound Beucher
USA – RZM Imports
USA – Aberdeen Bookstore
Japan – Beavercorp
Australia – Specialty Books
UK – Bookworld Wholesale
UK – The Aviation Bookshop
UK – Aviation Book Centre
You can also find Chandos books in good hobby stores and independent bookstores Worldwide – just google Chandos Publications Ltd.
