Air
Aeroflight
Aeroflight calls itself 'The Website for Aviation Enthusiasts', which is not a bad description. It's not aimed especially at collectors but the information in this site is considerable and the Media link from the homepage may well be worth exploring, as well as details of forthcoming Airshows, at the bottom of the index.

Historic Flying
Only come to Historic Flying if you are really a big-league collector. Not long ago on this website you could only buy either a Brewster F2A-1 Buffalo or a Griffon Hovercraft!
