Hi There Folks, It is said I have a small passion for Aircraft, so I have decided to put a little piece of the net aside for this purpose. On this site I have placed a few pics of some Aircraft that have captured my imagination. I have tried to add a variety, although some info may be scarce I have tried to put in as much as I can in a small space. To the best of my knowledge no pics on this site are in breach of copywrite, if anyone can inform me otherwise I shall remove them without delay. I have also had a go at building a home cockpit, any comments on this would be welcomed, it is of course on the flight sim page :).
I should also state that another (more important) passion in my life is my family, My Lovely wife Pauline, and my children - Kelly, Tammy, Troy, Jason, Elizabeth, Matthew, Rebecca, Jessica and Tom. You will find this bunch of characters floating around the site acting as links to other pages or perhaps just plain acting :). We live in Ipswich, about 30 kms from Brisbane in the state of Queensland, Australia and where I might add is very close to the Amberley Air Force Base where I spent some time working, so I still get a very close view of various aircraft. Anyway, here are a few pics of my favorites. Thanks Paul for some great backgrounds.

After losing a wheel this F1-11 from RAAF Base Amberley made a very skillful landing, performed by a very skillful pilot. A good days work by any stretch of the imagination.
My son Matt, he will take you to the next page.
