Susie Beaching Mermaid M6
Rick McWilliams
Ed. Note: Rick asked a good question that we haven't encountered in a while: "Why all of the required info [on the photo submission form]?" The main reason is so we can ship out an AVweb ball cap to each week's "POTW" photographer — though it does occasionally come in handy to have submitters' e-mail addresses if we need to contact them with questions.

Blue Skies for Boeing
Stacey Greenhill of Wheeling, IL
This picture was taken shortly after the Dreamliner arrived. We, the lady pilots, were waiting to take our annual group picture, and I thought that this was an interesting shot. Several others saw what I was doing and started taking the same picture. And no, it is just off my Cannon D10 — no Photoshop. OSH, Friday, July 29 at 10:25 AM, while waiting for the photoshoot.

The Advantages of Airplane Ownership
Ron Horton of Ft. Mill, SC
That's right. While others are enjoying the afternoon flying, you can spend it washing the airplane! Taken with an iPhone; no manipulations. It really was a nice day to be in the wash pit — and it followed 4.9 hours of flying, so it wasn't all bad!
