    A new guy

    I've posted here b4 but that didn't seem to go right.

    So here again:


    Hey all, I'd like to introduce myself.

    I'm a 30 year old man from The Netherlands, yea I know I'm old, at least I feel old (specially after coming from the gym just now). I've been interested into to aircraft and specially ww1 and 2 era fighters. I've been trolling for a while here reading up on several threads.



    Mainly the best tank killer and night fighter in WW2. And yes i always thought the Il2 was king and yes I thought the UHU was the best NF the Germans made.
    But I see the errors in my way.

    I hope I'm welcome here and my post my few cents on several matters.

    You're putting me on, right ? You're 30 and consider yourself old ? Gee..... I must be ancient or
    something. I believe I am the oldest active member of the forum, and I'm 76.

    Be that as it may, welcome to the forum....

    I vaguely remember thirty! Welcome from England - your previous posts were effected by the forum problems at the time.

    G'day OLD looney, welcome from the land of Oz and to the forum, this is just the place for you young-uns and you've got a lot of years of enjoyment to come, especially with this bunch of baby boomers.
