A recent thread brought about the subject of the ages of warbird enthusiast. I was intrigued and figured I would set up the this poll to see what the age range of our membership is. Don't worry, no one can see how you voted :)

Scott...I think you should be a bit more specific if you are talking about the physical age or the mental age :wink:

Slight to disproportionate variances can be found for the same individual HEHE
