To all our US visitors: Happy Fourth of July.

Today I have added an entirely new section: Gift Ideas. During the two years since starting this site, I have been receiving many emails from wives and girlfriends to aviation enthusiasts asking for various tips for a birthday or Christmas present that would put a smile on the face of their nearest and dearest.

While I've gladly responded to most such inquiries and will continue to do so to the best of my ability, I have also decided to put up a page with a few hints. Through partnership with Delphic Designs, specialists in technical illustration as fine art inspired by the great engineers of the past such as Brunel, R.J. Mitchell, and W. Boeing, we can now gladly recommend the first set of fine Spitfire-related products for your consideration. Or why don't you treat yourself and make a statement by carrying a state-of-the art Spitfire T-shirt or having a Spitfire coffee mug in your den or office.

• Spitfire Gift Ideas can be found at the menu to the left, and will from now on form the part of the Community department.
