About Us

Wingweb.co.uk was set up to bring you the best articles and information about classic and interesting aircraft.

Many of our articles are sourced from around the web, updated and edited for this website, others we write ourselves. We don’t feature every aircaft indescriminately. Rather, we feature those we find most interesting. We hope you will find them interesting too.

If we don’t feature an aircraft you’r interested in, then let us know, and we will try to feature it in the future.

The revised menu structure came from the excellent and comprehensive CSS play website , an invaluable resource for CSS help. From menu’s to galleries, if you want to do it in CSS, then look here.

Some of the photographs are used with kind permission of Anthony Noble, formerly of vortexaeroshots, which is no longer active. Most are from Public Domain sources. Note that clicking an image will show you an image information page with copyright information.

Another excellent source of images (from a photo gallery) and basic factsheets is PlaneFan.com, including many US military aircraft not featured here.

Many of the factsheets are updated/edited versions of articles from vectorsite.net.

Finally, thanks to all those who have emailed me with corrections and suggestions. Your input is warmly welcomed!
