About Us, Our Travels And the Antique Airplanes We've Found
If we tell you a little about us, you'll see why we love antique airplanes. But this site isn't about us.... it's about those planes, and the first thing we want to tell you is that we can't do this by ourselves. All pilots love to talk about airplanes and flying.... We're hoping that you will contribute, tell us about your favorite vintage airplanes, airshows, and aircraft museums. Tell us where YOU'VE found antique airplanes. Share your favorite flying story.Back to a little about us.... Love of antique airplanes... any airplane started when Mark was a boy because of his Pop. Pop was a fighter pilot in World War II. He continued flying light aircraft in the years he raised his family. Mark's family room had sectional aviation maps for wall paper. Dozens of lovingly hand built models hung from his bedroom ceiling. Pop started him flying. He studied Aeronautical Engineering in college and learned to fly with the college flying club. My passion has always been travel.... You can read about our travels at our first website MouseTours Travels. We started roaming the world as a team when we got married, and I learned to love airplanes too. Though never a commercial pilot, Mark does fly. And it does run in the family. My sister and her hubby are private pilots too. (Read their story on the Cub to Oshkosh pages.) An airline job kept Mark close to the planes he loved, and allowed us to search the world for them. Some vintage airplanes are easy to find, and others take some persistence... and just let me say Mark is long on persistence. He spends hours searching the net.... and he's not above picking up the phone and making calls to track down an elusive antique aircraft target. Interested in how we built this website? I have to tell you, it was easy. Click on that plane on the right and see what a great company we've used... Remember what we said about needing your help... and send us your favorites. If you think you'd rather have a website of your own rather than just contributing a page on our site, check out the company we use to make this all so easy! Whatever you do, keep on enjoying those planes.... We will, that's for sure. Find 'em, See 'em, Fly,'em! And have a great flight! Judy and Mark
