Sometimes journalists do ask people that know about warbirds and can present some of the facts. That has to be applauded. GOOD.

Sadly, they then go on to misquote, which not only is bad practice is pi--es off the person that was quoted.
My advice is just keep your mouth shut unless you are prepared to be misquoted.

At the risk of stating the obvious it sells newspapers.

But please don't tar all journalists with the same brush. Some of them have scruples. It's just that they don't climb in the gutter to work for the tabloid press.

for what it's worth.......
