WE NEED YOUR CONTRIBUTION

You have had one or more air events during the year Jean-Pierre Bonin would like to include ONE photo that you consider representative of your event in the annual magazine L'Aviateur magazine. You had two activities? Send two photos! (More than two activities ... choose the two most important ones please.) You can send him a high resolution photo file with a brief description and location.

Do not forget to mention the name of the photographer.

Jean-Pierre would appreciate receiving the files and descriptions no later than November 15th

In 2017, after a call to all, he received ... zero photos (!) And the review of the year was dedicated to air shows ... Surely your RVA, your training session, your dinner or other events are worth appearing at sides of others. He wishes again this year, give way to those who make the aviation passion live year after year and sometimes remain in the shadows.

If your event was mentioned during the year in L'Aviateur magazine, no problem! It's a magazine of the year so you can still be there. Simply send a photo that has not been published "in the magazine" (It does not matter if it was seen by 800 people on the Internet!) Thank you for your cooperation, hoping to see your group, airport or activity of 2018 in the next edition of L'Aviateur Magazine!

Jean-Pierre Bonin, aerial events photographer boninjp@aviateurs.quebec
