My father sparked my interest in aviation He flew the C-46 Commando "Over the Hump" from India into China during WW II after the Japanese took over the Burma Road. After the War he took me to air bases and lots of air shows, where he shared his knowledge about aviation. He also built control line models for us to fly. Later we built and flew radio control model airplanes. When I learned how to use a computer, I started a website called Aviation Trivia. On it are descriptions of over 400 historical aircraft. There are also descriptions and guides to the scale model airplanes you can get of the aircraft. The most popular part of the site is the World's Fastest Aircraft.
