Just a thought:

Maybe a separate Forum could be created for Current or Modern Aircraft Still or soon to be in service. I know a lot of WIX enthusiasts/members have interests in current military aircraft and current civilian aircraft (as opposed to warbirds that used to be in military service). This could be the forum for discussion about KC-45s, A400s, C-17s, F-22s, F-16s, Airbus A380s, etc. We could have pure Warbirds discussions in one forum and could talk about current and modern ("future" warbirds in some cases) in another.

Just some food for thought.

:)

I agree there for sure. The KC-45 debates are literally childish and immature and guess what its a good 5-15yr away from even flying yet they all want it on a WAR bird forum????? something doesnt seem right to me.

All these modern thingys are NOT warbirds as they HAVENT flown, HAVE NOT BEEN BUILT, havent entered service etc or FOUGHT IN A WAR to even claim a title as a true WAR bird.

So i think any future plane should move to another topic area. Moderators have the ball now.

We do alreay have a "military matters" forum. Perhaps threads about currently serving or future aircraft could go there.

How about if we custom tailor forum for each member.

That could probably work, but the current description for this forum says "non-aviation related."

I would like to have a seperate internet for wxlova/sabredriver. And if possible a seperate forum to discuss the Air Force Museum, with Rustangdriver as the moderator. And anything else you would like to bring me, Santa.
