Global Aviation Resource is a free, online source of news, views, features and imagery from the world of aviation.

Description

Global Aviation Resource (GAR) launched on 18th May 2009 and has subsequently gone from strength to strength. Conceived by highly respected photo-journalist Karl Drage and bringing together an eclectic group of aviation photographers and writers, the GAR team is well-connected across the aviation world and produces features and reports of the highest quality and, equally importantly, on a regular and timely basis. “Aviation is a fast-moving world and I wanted to create a site that can keep up with the industry but not compromise on quality when it comes to reporting news or publishing features. I think we’ve achieved that in our first year and the trick now is to continue delivering”, said Karl back in 2010. We’ve always strived to remain true to that launch commitment of bringing visitors the very best news, reviews, features, comment and photography from those at the sharp end of aviation – initially on a weekly basis and, as GAR developed, far more frequently. We’ve now published nearly 700 articles and 150+ blogs and in doing so have managed to capture the imagination of enthusiasts worldwide while also catching the eye of the aviation industry. Much to our amazement, GAR was shortlisted for a prestigious FlightGlobal ‘Aviation Web Award’ just seven months after its inception. We came second that time in the final reckoning, but in 2011 it was announced that we had been awarded with the hugely prestigious ‘Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators Award for Aviation Journalism’ – this for our extensive coverage of the Harrier’s retirement from UK service. GAR covers every facet of the aerospace genre – ranging from modern military to historic aviation, through to airshows and industry news with everything in between covered too. It has been an honour to work so closely with many military air arms, businesses, owners and industry figures and our aim is to continue doing exactly that – bringing you the best aviation features on the net including a host of exclusive content, not just here on GAR but now also courtesy Global Aviation Magazine. This high quality, monthly, digital product launched in October 2011 and includes a host of feature content, with many exciting plans already coming together for future editions. The GAR website itself has continued regardless, allowing us to publish time-sensitive news and feature content on an ongoing basis, while a further the addition to the family, thehangar.tv, is aviation’s very own social network and allows anyone interested in aviation to chat, share, discuss and learn in a free, friendly and open environment. 2012 saw us add Get into Flying to the GAR group. GIF is run by Royal Navy Sea King pilot Jon Duke and aims to encourage and assist anyone who wants to fly, for whatever reason. It’s a great addition to the GAR family and we are sure it will be a huge success. Global Aviation Resource – we’ve got aerospace covered.
