About me!

Why have a section about myself? Well, I always enjoy to read about others when I visit their sites. So that I can get to know more about the person on the other side of the computer with a similar interest as myself. I'm 35 years old and live in Stockholm, Sweden. I've got a masters in Human Resource with a major in Business economics and am currently working as a human resource manager. 

So, why this narrowly focused site on such a strange subject as preserved axis aircraft? Well, it all started with that I thought it would be cool to learn the basics about web design which I did. As you can see from the simple design of this site, I never got beyond the basics in web design! The subject came natural since I hadn't been able to find a site with the information I was looking for, and I had collected some information and photos of preserved axis aircraft from my visits at different museums.

Some 20 years ago I begun keeping track of preserved aircraft through different sources so that I could go and visit them whenever I traveled somewhere. I started to document Photographically aircraft with varying degrees of success (it's very difficult to take good pictures of big camouflaged objects with protruding bits and pieces in dark and cramped museums!). Almost every time I look and examine one of these aircraft I discover a new thing, a gadget or technical solution which I haven't seen before. That's why I like to examine aircraft that are in different states of disassembly or under restoration. Of course, to see, hear and smell them flying is a great experience too.

Whenever I get a chance I try to get in to the air. The older airplane the better. One day I hope to own an old plane and fly it myself!

Hope you enjoy the website! //Mikael
