About

Chris -a.k.a "Rex"- likes to talk about planes. A lot. Usually he spends his days consuming vast quanities of coffee, reading vast quantities of aviation-related books, and talking about his obsession for all things that fly (birdlife included). This channel will focus on aviation and aviation history. It will cover the history and development of aircraft, famous & equally obscure events, and delve into many of the lesser known stories of aviation. Enjoy! Want to get in touch? Direct message me in Discord, flick me an email, or -if you're feeling traditional- write to my PO box! PO Box 3105, Warner, QLD, 4500
