here are some sign that you are a WW I aircraft model addict:
1. The ring tone of your cellphone is your favorite WW I song
2You own large numbers of WW I model aircraft
3 You own large number of books, magazines, Xeroxed pages ect on WW I aircraft
4. You get extremely happy when a new model of a WW I aircraft you have always wanted comes out in the scale you want.
5 you go into shock when something bad happens to one or more of your model aircraft
6. You get depressed on the days over one hundred years or so ago when something bad happens to one of your favorite aviators, air units or the real life aircraft you made a model of
7 while watching movies and documentaries you point out and identify the aircraft and other weapons and equipment
8. You get a WW I cookbook and have your spouse make you some WW I style meals. You give copies of these cookbooks to your friends who cook.
9. You sometimes wash down your meal from a WW I cookbook with a WWI drink like "French 75"
10 You give models of WW I aircraft to friends and relatives as presents.
11 Extreme happiness is when someone praises your models.

12. Your hard drive is full of pictures downloaded from the internet of obscure bits of WW1 aeroplane 'just in case'
-
13. 100 bucks for an out of print book that lists EVERY Fee by serial number seems TOTALLY reasonable (you probably didn't do it though... *i* won....)

You don't think twice before ordering a second one of a Kit you already have, just in case a second Build comes into play, and then follow that with a third just because it's such a spectacular Kit and / or subject......... or when the second arrives you discover it's really the third, you already had a "spare" stashed! ;) ;) ;)

You care about PC10, which shade of red THAT Dreidecker was painted (and whether it was a factory paint job with no streaking underneath), the white stripes on Du Doch Nicht...
And you probably have an opinion on each and all of these unknowables and many others.

You start doubting whether your fiance is the right one, when she can not see the difference between Albatros D.V and D.Va. :)

Or the more insane version: you have a spreadsheet of aviators, aircraft, and kits, so you know exactly how many of each kit to buy in advance, and can stay one step ahead of WNW kits selling out...
i of course don't know anyone like that, and certainly don't keep that tab open at all times...

Where you go on holiday depends on the question if there's at least one WWI related museum... and your family knows that...

or, you are talking at work about WWI airplanes, and the guy you are talking to has a blank stare....
.... he then says: You know way too much about this....
-
you have talked soo much about the planes and details that even SHMBO can spot the mistakes in the movie you are watching... and she hates that she knows.
mayor problem with this is that She even spots the mistakes you made on your latest model (and I hate that!!)

The only computer game you ever play is Rise of Flight.

This is your idea of a perfectly acceptable and thoroughly tasteful garden gnome
...and now, you're wondering how you could have rigged it
