I remember my Dad showing them to me as a kid at a Museum (I think it was the Imperial War Museum but I am not sure) and him telling me that him and his mates used to try to learn them all. (He grew up during the war).

Whenever I see one in a book or on TV I have very fond memories of my Dad telling me that story

oh and just found this with a google search:



it covered American, British and German planes apparently

Why on earth would I take it the wrong way? If you are referring to the age thing, no, it doesn't bother me at all. I was born in '48, well after the "War to End All Wars" (Ha!) ended, but grew up with reminders all around.

Its great that you have such wonderful memories of you dad.
