I have just received the following email.
Hi !
I would like to link to your photos at airliners.net in an android app which shows aircraft information by pointing at the plane in the sky. I requested the site administration for permission, but they gave we the answer to ask every photographer by himself because you are the owner.
I hereby ask you for your permission to link to your photos in this app. We will show your name and copyright at the footer under the picture shown. If you are willing to give permission you will receive a free version of the app at any time. Just ask me for it.
Thanks in advance
At first glance it seems like a golden opportunity for exposure of my images.
However it is almost certain to be a commercial exercise and from my past experience, to ask for some payment is likely to result in the guy going elsewhere for free usage from someone else as most current regs will have been photographed by many persons.
Would anyone care to comment?
Malcolm.
