Most of us are all familiar with the problem of trying to identify people, etc, in uncaptioned photos of old, especially long after the person who took them has passed on.
With this in mind could I kindly suggest that those who post aircraft photos on the forum at least provide a brief caption stating the subject's identity (registration or serial at a minimum). This would enable those interested at any later date to search the forum for all examples of aircraft ZK-xxx, etc.
At the moment we have probably thousands of unidentified photos posted here which no one is likely to ever visit again as the images are deeply buried under a non-descript thread heading. What could be a useful to researchers, historians, modellers, etc is thus thoughtlessly denied them.
