"My Lord, grant me success in struggling during failure, in having patience in disappointment, in going alone, in Jihad without weapons, in working without pay, in making sacrifice in silence, in having religious belief in the world, in having ideology without popular traditions, in having faith without pretensions, non-conformity without immaturity, beauty without physical appearance, loneliness in the crowd, and loving without the beloved knowing about it. My Lord, You teach me how to live; I shall learn how to die."
- Ali Shariati

That is the intention in the longer run. I wish to first catalog individual air bases and then move forward. I had already made a personal database of this information. I thought to transfer it to IMF. It will take time but hopefully this should be complete in good time here.

Cool, i've got a collection of serials that i'll organize and upload.

EDIT - Here's what i have so far.
Photo Credits are all over the place including Aerospacetalk, airliners.net and some other notable ones. All the watermarks are still intact, but since they're thumbnails, they probably won't be visible. I'll cobble together a full credit notation one of these days.
