Intro Aircraft Designer & WWII Enthusiast

[Redred]

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to quickly introduce myself! I'm new to the forum.

I work as an aircraft designer by trade, but my real passion—the thing I spend most of my free time studying—is the history and engineering of WWII planes. Specifically, I love diving into the technical decisions and design philosophies of the Allied and Axis aircraft.

I've been lurking for a bit and this place looks fantastic. I'm really looking forward to learning from all the expertise here and joining in on some of the technical discussions.

See you guys around the forums!

Design philosophy? I've always wondered about that regarding Blohm & Voss creations.

Welcome!

Hey Colin,

Thanks a lot for the heads-up on that channel! "Gregsplanesandautomobiles" sounds right up my alley, but I tried searching for it on YouTube and couldn't find anything exact under that name.

Do you happen to have the link handy? Could you post it here? I’d really appreciate checking it out to see if they cover the technical details we’ve been discussing.

Speaking of channels, I’ve been listening to this one lately on my commute to work, and I find it pretty amazing for the historical insights and engineering points it brings up. If you're looking for more resources, here it is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6-1DxHTT3dLPldhm2bGT5g.

I think it's a great fit for the technical discussions we have here.

Thanks again for the tip!
