In February of 2017 this site celebrated its 21st birthday. Work on XPlanes has been sporadic - an awful lot at the beginning and not a lot recently. Beware, therefore, that some information may be a little out of date. The pictures are timeless and I hope you find something here to make your visit worthwhile. A lot of my pictures are scanned-in photos - pre-digital cameras - and my aim is to improve their quality over time.
