Judging the Flight front cover competition

Well, the competition to get your photo as the cover of Flight International has now closed.

Given it’s the first year we’ve run the competition and that we announced the concept fairly late in the year, we’ve been blown over by the quality and quantity of the entries.

The judging panel comprised of myself, Community Editor Stuart Clarke, Images Coordinator Paul Gladman, Flight Editor and Deputy Editor Murdo Morrison and Max Kingsley-Jones, Managing Editor Andrew Doyle, and Art Editor James Mason.

The judging process dominated this morning’s agenda, with a good level of debate drawing out the process.

Eventually though the category winners we decided and we got our teeth into the big one – the front cover shot.

Actually, the decision was fairly universal and I’m sure when you see the image everyone will understand why. It truly is a special photograph.

We’ll be publishing the six category winners including that cracking cover shot in the 18-24 December issue of Flight International so look out for it then and on Flightglobal from the same date.
