-Hi Skypilot
Thanks
I don't think it matters how many we each contribute - it will build with time and effort.
Regards

-Great idea, it gets my vote. I don't have historic photos, but I do have airshow photos I'd happily contribute.

-Sounds like a good idea. I guess this Minnesota Johnson could probably supply some historical stuff :)

-Good idea Snapper but how about the cash going to relevant charities such as RBL, RAFBF etc. of the "artists" choosing, for those who wish to? Obviously I appreciate that if, like yourself its your livelihood, then that has a different bearing.
How do "we" go about this then?

Hi Guys and Girls
Following on from the thread on http://forum.keypublishing.co.uk/showthread.php?t=34641
historic photos, I have an idea that I have been sitting on for quite a while and one that I am sure that has occured to a lot of you already.
I would like to propose that we all get together and build a site to preserve all types of aviation photos - particularly historic ones - but also a growing archieve of shots posted from airshows and events as a living archieve from now on of aviation and warbirds.
I don't have many preconceptions but it would be a very solid research tool for future generations and assist in answering many questions that constantly get reasked.
I would be happy to scope up an concept/outline of what I propose including architecture, costs and funding model etc if there is sufficent interest
Thoughts ladies and gentlemen
Kindest regards
John Parker
