I love these calendars and have been buying them for many years! Seeing the history and photographs from the early days of flight up until the end of WWII is a real treat. Tearing off another day and discovering a wonderful aircraft history is one of the first things I do each morning. I buy additional calendars every Christmas and give them to my pilot friends. Unfortunately, three of the people (WWII pilots) I bought them for in the past years have passed away. All of the recipients looked forward to receiving them each year.

5 stars! My favorite calendar for many years! Please add Prisoner of War (POW) Month - September, and POW DAY (third Friday) in September in 2024. 2023: I know Walter J. Boyne LOVED the B-25. I would trade 4 B-25s, 3 P-47s and 2 P-51s REPEATS, for ONE Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer! Glad to see three PV-2 Harpoons this year! Keep up the good work!
