Other Historical Sites and Research Sources
Flight-History.Com
Flight-History is dedicated to developing an extensive on-line archive of aviation history. The archives are not exclusive to any one country or type of aircraft. We are committed to providing tools for aviation enthusiasts to contribute to the site. The archives focus on the pre-jet era for now. A very nice website. Cathy Berglund Chief Operating Officer and Director, asked us to include a link to their site. I have asked them to extend their history to including gliders and sailplanes.

Has a very extensive world-wide museum listing for your historical research:
