Aims and focal points regarding warbirds

Posted by Cees Broere on Thu Jan 23, 2003 05:38:20 AM

Hi all,

With the many active and not so active (but no less important) contributors on this board, I was wondering what your aims and focal points are in the warbird world being private or business.

Kicking off, I myself am greatly interested in anything warbird related (as long as it is fitted with a propellor) with the RAF (Bomber Command) and HP Halifax in particular. Although mostly spare time, a lot of time is spent researching crashsites, structures of aircraft types themselves and if possible helping other people and/or organisations with information and if possible parts for restoration projects besides having a Halifax cockpit project myself. Although being busy for 14 years in aviation archaelogy, my personal dream is to locate and recover a complete airframe somewhere in The Netherlands.

What I enjoy most about this board is the information and news that appears every day and never seems to slow down, or dry up, as well as the many contacts made which are beneficial both ways for the persons and projects as well.

What are your goals/views?

Cees
