We are always happy to get updates, additions and in particular,
photos of the aircraft on the list.
Our emphasis is on showing
the condition and circumstances of the actual aircraft displays.
Photos do not have to have artistic merit, but should show the
actual aircraft and its environment.
Clearly seen tail numbers
are a plus! (Note: Please do not send a photo unless you have publishing rights
for it.)
Important Note: ALL of our information is from
contributors and online sources such as Joe Baugher's list.
We do not have
any independent resources or references.
If you have a question, we may
possibly be able to point you somewhere, but we normally don't have any
additional information on any of the aircraft.

Ben Marselis supplied the original text list many years ago, and gave us
