I agree that traffic here slowed from the last two previous upgrade and the one before this did a fair bit.

I do also think we are loosing historic aviation minded people at a great rate due to age also, many passing on and the young get this #AVGEEK generation are not into what their forerunners were.

My interest in aviation started in the 1960s only maybe 20 years after the end of WWII with bomb craters and damage still evident, a lot still is there today but who cares? I do, I still can see it but heading very nearly to 65 years growing up with those films, Angels One Five, Dambusters, Great Escape fuelled that interest.

Maybe this is as good as its going to get, if so I will stick with the slow traffic updates as I would hate this place to disappear.  had to re register, it does not matter I do not worry about how many posts I have made here it may cause others undue stress.

AIrshows on decline, we used to have an abundance here in the UK now a a dozen max. I still thank Key for supplying the forum, this update was is a mess but come on we are all adult enough to do what we do best, discuss vintage historic aviation interests.
