A lot of people call the 1930's the "golden age of aviation", but I think that the 1940's is when aviation came of age. WW I was a war of trenches, and poisen gas - aviation was a factor, but not a major factor.
WW II was the first true "air war", where strategic bombing, massive flight engagements, and carrier warfare were born.
The planes were aerodymanically sleeker, and faster - and the warplanes were far deadlier in WW II.
This Gallery contains the Allies Hanger, and the Axis Hanger. All aircraft models from this period are contained within. This section may expand by country of service branch in the future.
