Hello,

I'm Patrick living in Belgium about 20km from Ypres, so I'm amidst all the memories of WW1. Reading about WW1, photographing all the military cemeteries in my region (250) I came to the "study" of these wonderfull airplanes and being retired now I can spend more time building some models. I hope to learn quickly and I'm counting on this forum. I'm pleased to be one of you.

To everyone thank you for welcoming me on the site! As a novice I will not be able to give you much help, but there is one thing I can do, and that is send you pictures of cemeries and graves of the ww1. If any of your relatives were fighting in the Great War and died in Flanders I will gladly look for them and take a photograph of there grave.
Thanks again

Patrick
