Each week, we go through dozens (and sometimes hundreds) of reader-submitted photos and pick the very best to share with you on Thursday mornings. The top photos are featured on AVweb‘s home page, and one photo that stands above the others is awarded an AVweb baseball cap as our “Picture of the Week.” Want to see your photo on AVweb.com?

Another week has come and gone, and AVweb readers have again come through with some great airplane pics to kick off our Thursday morning.

Erickson Air-Crane Hovering

Let’s get things started with this stellar shot from Andrew Kocher of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Seems like we’re getting a lot of good air-lift photos lately – but we’re not complaining!

Hershal Lake Water Pump Station

Tim O’Connor of Batavia, Ohio has been out flying his Autogyro again, and this time his camera caught one of those early-warning moments – or, as Tim put it, "If the reservoir freezes all the way to the pump house, should we expect ice cubes from the faucet?"


Hungry for more reader photos? Header over to AVweb‘s home page and check out the bonus pics in our slideshow (about 1/3 of the way down the page, on the right).

Click here to submit your own photos to “POTW.”

A quick note for submitters: If you’ve got several photos that you feel are “POTW” material, your best bet is to submit them one-a-week! That gives your photos a greater chance of seeing print on AVweb, and it makes the selection process a little easier on us, too. 😉

A Reminder About Copyrights:
Please take a moment to consider the source of your image before submitting to our “Picture of the Week” contest. If you did not take the photo yourself, ask yourself if you are indeed authorized to release publication rights to AVweb. If you’re uncertain, consult the POTW Rules or or send us an e-mail.
