Hi Jim here.
We're absolutely peers, 8-December I'll be 63 year old.
During the Vietnam War, I was on the other side of the Iron Curtain in Poland and since then I'm very interested in American aviation from this war, I have a very large collection of models from that period.
I am also interested in planes of WW I, significant in this collection are the aircraft of this period in the service of the Polish aviation.
Today I start doing models in 1:32 scale and will only WW I.

Yours.

Adam

Thanks for the "Welcome".................so far this Forum has turned out to be WAY better than I even hoped it would be.
Everyone has been very generous with their time and advice to answer my sometimes dumb questions, and have always been friendly. not condescending like on "some" other forums I have tried which shall remain nameless.
This is the first place I've been that I haven't caught grief for building "over-size" toy-like models, and not being a "professional" modeler and having all the answers without ever having to ask for any advice. Wonder how they learned(??)

I LIKE THIS FORUM!!! -- ( "Thank You" Des ) ;D ;D ;D
