I have been buying these Golden Age of Flight calendars for many years. In addition to my calendar, I have been giving these calendars to 3 of my pilot/aviation friends. They look forward to the gift each year. We love the planes of the 1903 to 1945 era, particularly those with radial engines. Also, when Gladstone stopped mounting the calendars on the plastic stand, I kept my plastic stand and put the new calendars on it.
