PlasticPilot’s Advent Calendar – Christmas: 101+ Aviation Links !
My gift for you is this list of aviation links. I first wanted 25 links to match the Advent Calendar tradition. That was too restrictive. I opted for a list of 101 links. I could not stick to it. Call it a 101+ list of aviation links. Merry Christmas to all of you !
