Aviation Photojournal March - April 2016 | Page 12

Happy Anniversary to us! That's right, it's Aviation Photojournal's one-year anniversary! It is certainly true that time flies when you're having fun, and that's the case for us here at APJ. We cannot believe that it's been a year already - but we're already looking ahead. We can't wait to bring you MORE great content, MORE inside access, MORE of the BEST in aviation and military photography!

Over the past year, we have photographed hundreds of aircraft in dozens of countries representing many of the world's greatest air forces. The APJ team traveled the globe and you, our readers, have been there with us every step of the way. Our images and stories have been enjoyed by over 275,000 of you in the pages of APJ, and hundreds of thousands more via social media. We extend our sincerest thanks to our loyal readers, without whom this past year would not have been possible...thank you! Here's to a successful second year and many more beyond!
