FURTHER INFORMATION
Flightline - Preserved US Military Aircraft	This list of US military aircraft preserved and displayed was originally compiled by Ben Marselis with input from many others. Our coverage of airworthy warbirds is very limited, since Ben did not cover them in the original list. We have concentrated on those which are often on display rather than personal projects.
Virtual European Aviation Museum	Virtual Aviation Museum A-Z by Manufacturer [in German]
Airworthy Warbirds & Aircraft	Worldwide lists of selected Bombers, Fighters, Liaison, Trainers and Transport aircraft. The aim of this site is to build up a database with 'all' airworthy Warbirds and those being rebuilt to airworthy condition. Currently the site contains 773 different aircraft and 451 pictures of the aircraft.
