Ever wondered how Flight International comes out every week? (Believe me, we do too sometimes). In this new blog, I'll be shedding some light on what goes on during the five days it takes to pull together the world's longest-running aviation magazine, talking about forthcoming highlights and generally letting you know what it's like to work on Flight International.
The magazine, which entered its second century last year, is of course these days just part of a family of products under the Flightglobal banner, that includes the industry's biggest web site, a portfolio of premium news and data services and everything from conferences and awards to daily newspapers at all the major air shows (interactive as well as print).
Editing Flight International, which I have done since 2001, is an enormous privilege. I get to work with the best journalists in the business, travel the world (this is me at the recent Bahrain air show) and delve into the affairs of the industry's most important executives. My colleagues and I get to select and produce what ends up between the covers of the magazine each week, drawing on the resources of a Flightglobal content team that spans three continents.
I look forward to keeping you up to date on what's going on at Flight International and hearing your views - good and bad - on the magazine.
