ANY WW2 Historians here??

I have a bunch of model planes from WW2, I acquired them from a very nice Veteran at a Veteran's day rummage sale a few years ago.

They were free to me with the condition that i appreciate them and take care of them.

I figure the best way to appreciate any kind of vehicle is to know everything one can possibly know about it, so who can tell me everything about WW2 planes??

I want to know all about WW2 Tanks too if anyone knows a great bit about them.

There are a lot more than pictured but to give the idea :)


I live just about a mile down the road from Falcon Field here in Mesa. It's home to one of the CAF squadrons. There are a slew of aircraft located here. B17, B25, and a host of WWII fighters. They even have an operational F4 Phantom and a Mig17. Just the other day we were stopped at the light on the SE end of the runway when an F4F Helcat came in at low level across the Boeing parking lot and buzzed the runway. That plane was cooking right along
