"Courtest Aircraft" is a typo
"Wild Warbirds" is a dead link

and you can add;
51 Factory

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. A quick question, are AeroTrader.com and AeroTrader.net related or not?

This list is great about 10x better than mine. I think there is another similar, although less comprehensive, one out there somewhere, but I can't remember where I saw it.

First off, that is a very comprehensive list!

Thanks! I wish I could say it compares well with the one above!

I didn't think to check Facebook, and honestly I'm not a really big fan of the website. Also, I tend to only include direct links to individual websites in my bookmarks. However, I would be missing a huge part of the industry if I didn't, so I really appreciate you mentioning those.

"Courtest Aircraft" is a typo
"Wild Warbirds" is a dead link

51 Factory

Errors fixed and link added, thanks!

I'm always making minor corrections like this to other people's lists, and afraid of seeming nit-picky, so I understand completely.

I didn't go through all the links above, and not sure he is still actively working, but Ray Middleton out of Loveland CO, who did a lot of British aircraft. He was the one who repaired, or is repairing, Bill Greenwood's two seater Spitfire.

How is that Spitfire coming along?, it seems to have been a long time out of action.

I'm pretty sure they are NOT!
