Want a better magazine?
Airborn needs your articles and photos. We’d like to read about your flights, frights, sites, experiences and techniques. Anything that’s of interest , educating or enthusing to pilots is especially welcome. Airborn can’t afford to pay you but does post contributors a complimentary copy which you should receive a day or so before everyone else. Just email your text to; aero@xtra.co.nz or put it on CD, DVD, Zip, Flash drive or even floppy disk. Most text programs such as Microsoft Word (Windows or Mac) are fine but photos in MS Word files have reduced resolution, so please supply photo files in highest resolution separately. If it’s not digital, clean printed copy helps, or if you hand write, please write neatly on one side of the paper only. INCLUDE photos, of the people, place or gliders involved and one of yourself to make the article more interesting. We print in full colour and with digital photo editing, it’s amazing what we can do to enhance ordinary snapshots. Black and white or colour prints are fine. Digital images should be the original high resolution. Contact me for solutions for emailing large files such as multiple large image files. Photos for the cover should be eye-catching, colourful, sharp, and high resolution. You can also send transparencies or prints for scanning. Anything marked with a return address will be returned along with your complimentary copy. Help promote or make our sport safer, and Airborn will present your contribution in the best way possible.
