Just want to say hello.

I'm new here and want to say hello. I've always had an interest in WWII aircraft and the pilots who flew them and crew. Read many books on the subject and have a couple in my bookcase to be read.

This sure is one active forum. I don't think I've had as many responses with any of the other forums I use so soon after joining.

Welcome to the site.

Just ignore Les. He is his usual self. Probably getting worked up for this upcoming NHL season.

Ghost that is Les's way of welcoming new guys. He is not a bad guy though. He means it jest and in a joking manner. Unless you piss him off you wont have a problem with him.

In fact the people that get along the best with him, talk **** right back to him. You just half to take it with a grain of salt and not personally. He is real good at giving it out but he can also take it and will take it and have a good time with it as well.

Ok, but I'm going to take a guess at something here and say that what I meant by other forums was other discussion boards on other subjects separate from this one and not the different threads on this one.

Welcome to the house of fun mate.... Don't mind Les, he's an half-wit and is harmless. Should he get too annoying, just show him the latest issues of Homes and Gardens, Knitting Magazine or any other similar magazines....
They usually calms him down for a while...
