I've been preparing the 2022 SPOTM calendar for some time now in conjunction with the rest of the admin team and this is the list of topics for 2022:

January : ANY airliner photographed in 2021 which has not won or been 2nd or 3rd in either photo comp, i.e. not already in the hall of fame

April: half and half, nosewheel(s) in the air but main wheels on the ground
May : Flexwings
June : Any Turkish registered civilian aircraft
July: Sikorsky, it’s 50 years since Igor’s death so any civil register Sikorsky design including licence built types such as Westlands amended to Westlands and associated designs
August: aircraft of the Indian sub continent registered in Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan or Sri Lanka
September: any Pilatus aircraft including gliders to widen the scope
October: a very significant anniversary from 1972, The Airbus A300 first flew on 28th October, the first Airbus airliner and first twin engine wide body , to make it a bit easier the subject will be any Airbus wide body airliner.
November: an aircraft displaying at a 2022 airshow
December: This month marks the Diamond jubilee of the first flight of the Bell 206 Jetranger (December 1962) so this month’s subject is any Bell 206 or it’s derivatives

Good mix there. I should be able to enter 4 of them, possibly 5 depending what I can find in the archives.
