We are building a better photo library with new state-of-the-art features. In 2008 I started the original Airliners Gallery digital photo image library featuring the best pictures of commercial jets. The AG is a consortium of worldwide photographers where their best aviation photography and airliners photos are showcased. The staff photographers are a great team of transport photographers from around the world and also my friends, many of which I have known since the 1960s.

We carefully select the best photographers (by invitation only), the best pictures and also limited the number of shots of the same subject. We purposely restrict the number of shots in the AG in order to pick only the best images. As a result, each image stands out in the AG library.

We also supply the publishing and advertising industry with the best digital images of transport subjects.

My job is to invite the photographers, select the photos, process and save the photos, promote and publicize the images, communicate and coordinate with the aviation, publishing and advertising industry.

The AG image library will have a gallery for each airline, past and present. Follow along as we add new images almost every day.

The AG library of pictures of commercial jets is now available on this new SmugMug website. SmugMug is the perfect location to offer our best shots. On this expanding website (new images are added every day) you will see our most popular shots and brand new arrivals. The best part - each image is now available for sale in many new exciting products - from color prints to mouse pads to mugs and T-shirts (and many others in between). The AirlinersGallery.com security watermark is automatically removed for all orders when processed. Every image in this photo image library is available in the following products via SmugMug:

PRINT SIZES

Since all of our aircraft images in the AG library are in a 4:6 ratio (except the Airline Tails which are in a 5:5 ratio) the following sizes work best for prints and posters:

4 inches (10.1 cm) x 6 inches (15.2 cm)
8 inches (20.3 cm) x 12 inches (30.5 cm)
12 inches (30.5 cm) x 18 inches (45.7 cm)
16 inches (40.6 cm) x 24 inches (60.9 cm)
24 inches (60.9 cm) x 36 inches (91.4 cm)

Please note some images may not support the larger sizes. The order form will note which images are not suitable for the larger sizes.

For Airline Tails:

5 inches (12.7 cm) x 5 inches (12.7 cm)
8 inches (20.3 cm) x 8 inches (20.3 cm)
