ABOUT BJÖRN

	My primary interest lies with timetables of the piston era, especially from the late 1930s to the late 1950s. However, ever since I picked up my first timetable in 1960 I have continuously added current material to my collection. Sadly, with the demise of the printed timetable, the days of searching for timetables at airports, in city ticket offices or travel agencies at home or abroad, are long gone. Sending mail requests to hundreds of airlines around the world is also a thing of the past. During this millennium I have mostly been looking for old or rare timetables, but since the early 2020s practically stopped adding to the collection. From the late 1970s onwards I have swapped many timetables with a number of collectors. (Thanks Frank - I will always remember your generosity - and Perry for the many packages and boxes you have shipped across the ocean!) As for trading, I have kept a lower profile the past decades since my duplicates have been difficult to locate, lying in no order in boxes in my storage. I have had plans to check those boxes, but so far no time. Time Flies... Timetables from All Over the World is a book published in 2011 with images of some of the more graphic 1920s-1960s timetables in my collection including brief histories of the airlines. See this page, with glimpses of the book, if you are interested in obtaining a copy. Early in 2004, Daniel Kusrow and I established The Aeromarine Website, devoted solely to one of the true pioneers of U.S. aviation. In addition to my interest in civil aviation, I also have a minor interest in ocean liners and over the years I have acquired a number of sailing lists. You will find a selection of them on my site Maritime Timetable Images. ...and...another little interest of mine: diecast model vehicles. I am not an active collector, but have kept some of the old models I used to play with when a kid. I have photographed a number of them as well as some catalogues and added a few pages - mostly for my own fun. Long before the airline timetable appeared, there was the railway (railroad) timetable to collect. I keep a few for comparison and have added a page devoted to North American railway timetables from the 1940's-1960s era, many with nice covers featuring the diesel-powered streamliner. Finally, a big hug to my wife Sylvia and my daughter Henny for having put up with me all these years!

	Note the light blue ONU letters on this all-white Curtiss C-46 (SE-CFC), captured at Malmö-Bulltofta Airport in 1961, newly-arrived from the Congo for a short "leave", but soon to be back. The owner, Malmö-based charter airline TSA - Transair Sweden AB, operated many C-46s on behalf of the United Nations (abbreviated ONU in French) during the Congo crisis in the early sixties.
