SPOTM 2019 Calendar
Posted: Thu Nov 08, 2018 7:46 am
I and the other mods have been discussing the 2019 calendar for some time now and we have now finalised it so here are the subjects:
January - Flybe
February - Jumbo Jubilee. The Boeing 747, celebrating 50 years since it's first flight
March - Cessna Citation series
April - any civilian Lockheed aircraft, a star studded subject
May - De Havilland Canada aircraft (i.e. DHC. *)
June - Emergency services aircraft such as air ambulances, police , coastguard
July - French letters , As it's Bastille Day on 14th the subject is any aircraft with a French (incl. French overseas) registration
August - smoke or vapour. Can be either an aircraft contrailing or with vapour on/off the wings or discharging smoke (display smoke, engine start up or dirty engines!)
September - a dose of the Pitts. Commemorating 75 years of the Pitts Special so any version of that amazing biplane
October - British holiday airlines of the past (either defunct or absorbed into other companies)
November - a displaying aircraft from a 2019 airshow
December - Winter Wonderland, any photo of a civilian aircraft as long its includes snow or/and Ice
so there we are, hope you like it and you've plenty of time to start looking for those subjects. And watch out for icy or snowy days this winter for opportunities to photograph the December subject!
post any questions here and I / we will do our best to answer them
