Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
I've always worshiped the aircraft designed before 1955, as if the designers back then possessed some mysterious "wisdom" that faded away later. Despite that their performance would be modest by today's standards, older planes always seemed to be more smartly built, offering more for a smaller price, and being beautiful for the eye (although this is irrelevant).
