Please use this forum for anything to do with the Photo-Competition on www.militaryairshows.co.uk
Whether you disagree with the selection of a winning photo or want to discuss photos that have been entered etc
Also an ideas on improving the photo-competition are welcome as well as ideas on future themes.

How about having aerobatic aircraft as a theme, eg Extras, Yaks, Caps and so on.

It may well be the Neal you think but I don't have many insider piccies. Not yet anyway.

Great idea! That'll be the next theme then. I reckon i might be getting one or two Extra 300 shots sent in.
Anymore ideas for competition themes are very welcome.

This is one impressive aircraft from the last photocomp taken by Dean Alexander:

Would be an amazing sight to see a MiG-25 at RIAT, especially this version...........look at the size of those engines

I've got lots of ideas for future themes:
Flying boats and seaplanes?
Pyrotechnics-the best or most outrageous use of special effects in air shows.
A Hercules theme before the C-130 turns 51.
Attack helicopters.
New to NATO-recent photos of aircraft from new NATO members.
Recent warriors-Aircraft with mission markings or special markings earned from combat in last 15 years or so.
Classy Latins-Aircraft from Latin American air forces or built in Latin America.
Fire bombers.
Head of State aircraft.
Gate guards.
Drones/RPVs.

Shuttleworth's Edwardians would be a good one.

Why concentrate on only aircraft? How about parachute display teams or any of the other displays held at airshows
