Warbirds
Warbirds are mainly military aircraft manufactured between 1935 and 1945. They include all the classic combat aircraft of WWII, as well as all the early jets.
I have neglected the WWI aircraft, I'm trying to rectify this. In the meantime, those airplanes will be on this page until I get enough of them for their own section.
