If you feel that your site is worthy of our prestigious airplane award or know of a site that we should review and potentially honor with "The Best Aviation Site" award, please contact us by clicking here and submit your request.
Please note, you can't buy an award logo off of us. Our awarding is based on the fact that your site or the site you nominate is adding value to the art form the site is about. Also, please note that we get over 130 requests per week to review aviation related sites. So if you have a site or want to nominate a site please review our award guidelines located here.
The aviation industry is very large and their are a lot of sites that are doing a really good job online and we want to make sure we recognize them and honor them with this award. If you have a site that talks about aviation, airplane buying, airplane ownership, flight training or other general aviation information - you might qualify for an award.
We take great pride in making sure we only issue these award logo's to the best sites in the aviation world so make sure that if you recommend a site that it is a good one!
He promotes this in unsolicited emails (spam) and on a seperate website under a false name!
There is a very similar bestaviationsites.com which seems "unrelated" but seems to be the inspiration and cover for this con!

But spread the word, copy the link of this KP thread
