Hello to all.Glad I found this web sight! I've been a fan of WWII aircraft since I was 5 years old building my first Plastic model.I lived on Long Island in NewYork most all my life. I've seen Many aircraft built and fly Here since its the home of Grumman,and also Republic. I have a few hour's in a Piper Cherokee,and a Cessna 172.I build and fly R/C Aircraft, and build scale Plastic Models.I aslo like going to airshows and collect WWII and Modern Military Pics and books,and information,ect. Looking forward to many Topics on this sight.
Ive aslo had the pleasure of meeting Col. Francis S.Gebreski in person Twice and also getting his Autograph both time.
