Introduction
Regard this site as my ever growing database which I decided to place into the internet. It is fed by information I came across about individual aircraft types. Going public helps me to keep more discipline archiving my own photographs and rescuing from oblivion the sources where I found interesting data. And I hope the information I present here will be of interest to others, too.
You will find individual aircraft listed on a type by type basis. There will be :
Photographs of aircraft contributed by others or taken by myself
References to book, magazines, and websites dealing with that type of aircraft.
Quotes from these sources regarding historical , technical or handling data.
It is a personal site, subjective in its choice of aircraft and depth of coverage of individual types . For a complete listing of aircraft types I refer to the anual Janes All the World Aircraft , the publications of William Green , the Putnam series of monographs about aircraft manufactures , the Encycopedia of World Aircraft etc
I´d like to point out that the contents of this site will increase and change constantly.
This website evolved in merging the sections Type Collection and Pictures of my Aviation Enthusiast Pages which is closed now.
So the pages of this website will not have a consistent format for some time as I have taken over most of them directly from the old server without changing the appearance / format.
I apologize for any inconvenience through broken links originating in this transfer from my old server. These will be fixed one by one by updating the entries of the subpages.
