t7a haha... true, but we all have an inner geek somewhere!
I've not met many other flightgear collectors (others do exist!), but don't really understand the more common hobbies of stamp collecting, celebrity gossip, Saturday shopping, etc...
Unfortunately for me (or more unfortunately for my wife) it's a subject that really has captured my interest, as it's such a massive / broad topic, you'll never learn everything..
Cheers, Scott
