I'm especially interested in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars, RAF in WW2 (haven't gotten round to reading up on WW1 history yet), Operation Dynamo and the Fleet Air Arm during the Falklands (I find the aircraft carrier operations are really fascinating). C:
I also have a massive weakness for Spitfires, Hurricanes, Lancasters, Sea Harriers and the Eurofighter!
i, also, am especially astonished by the RAF in WW2 (and the general combination of various alliances and their planes, as well as the airfights in the euro areas), and don't yet know a lot about WW1 history. however, i think the era of aviation between those two wars is also pretty fascinating (especially with all the technological advances that happened because of the war. have you ever seen 'the wind rises', for example?)!
i unfortunately don't know a lot about the falklands war (i never actually got around to reading about it) but the napoleonic wars seem to be pretty cool.
and of course, though it is massively cliche, i love spitfires, mustangs, and the airacobra (i actually went to an airshow a while ago and SAW A REAL ACTUAL P-51 MUSTANG AAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!)
do you have other eras of history you're interested in??
