Biplane Fighter Aces from the Second World War
More than two decades on the Internet!
Welcome!
Welcome to my site about biplane fighter aces, their aircraft and major aerial operations were biplane fighters took part.
The site also contains other aviation related subjects which I find interesting, including information about Swedish voluntary aviators from the Second World War.
If anyone could provide me with corrections/additions, feel free to email me!
Visit my blogg about aviation (and other) matters slightly out of the scope of my site, to promote good books, interesting web-sites etc. at WWII Biplane Fighter Aces.
