For the second year running, AirSpace (our user forums and galleries) has offered you the chance to get your favourite image on to the front cover of the end-of-year special issue of Flight International.

The Competition really kicked into another gear this year with nearly 1,500 images submitted in the six categories. In addition the quality of the entries was second to none and caused the judging process to drag out over several days!

Congratulations go to Begemont and was this spectacular shot of a Russian Air Force Su-27 releasing flares at MAKS 2007
