AIRLINERS ILLUSTRATED

Celebrating an Incredible Aviation Career ✈️

After an outstanding career in aviation, Captain Stew Campbell has officially retired.

Stew began his flying career with Jersey European, before moving to Air 2000, and then dedicated an incredible 21 years to easyJet, finishing his airline career flying the Airbus A320neo.

It was a real honour to work alongside his colleagues to create this bespoke artwork which was then eventually framed complete with his epaulettes, wings, badge, a unique keepsake celebrating a lifetime of professionalism, dedication and achievement.

The artwork was presented to Stew at his retirement celebration on 15th July, surrounded by his family, friends and colleagues.

Receiving feedback like this reminds me why I love creating these one-of-a-kind career tributes:

"The presentation was a complete success and went down a storm. It’s such a unique and personal gift that little would come close to it. Everyone, and I mean everyone who contributed, were absolutely stunned by the quality of the work. Thanks so much again for your collaborative efforts, the results were amazing."

Thank you to everyone involved for trusting me to create such a special retirement gift. It was a genuine privilege to play a small part in celebrating Captain Stew Campbell's remarkable career.

Congratulations, Stew, and thank you for your years of dedication to aviation. Wishing you a long, happy and well-deserved retirement.

If you're looking for a truly unique retirement, promotion or career milestone gift for a pilot, cabin crew member or aviation professional, I'd be delighted to help create something just as personal.

Today, we stand with a true hero of our skies. ✈️👨‍✈️💙

Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger has courageously shared the heartbreaking news that he has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.

To the world, Captain Sully will forever be remembered for the extraordinary calm, skill, and leadership he displayed on 15 January 2009, when he and his crew safely landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 people on board. It was a moment that reminded us all what true professionalism, courage, and humanity look like.

Now, Captain Sullenberger faces a very different challenge.

In a deeply moving statement shared on his website, he reflected on how this diagnosis has changed his understanding of what it means to serve others. Rather than facing it in silence, he has chosen to speak openly, hoping to raise awareness and inspire others.

Reflecting on the legacy of Flight 1549, he wrote:

"Over the years, when people would ask about the successful outcome of Flight 1549, I would say that 'courage can be contagious,' and on that day it helped everyone band together... Now we need that courage to battle this disease."

Those words capture the same quiet strength and selflessness that defined his remarkable aviation career. Even now, his commitment to helping others remains unwavering. As he so powerfully reminds us, he is now part of a new community, and we will be courageous together.

For more than four decades, Captain Sullenberger dedicated his life to aviation safety, professionalism, and service. His influence has inspired generations of pilots and earned the admiration of millions around the world. His legacy extends far beyond one remarkable flight-it lives on in every life he has touched.

Today, we send our deepest respect, gratitude, thoughts, and prayers to Captain Sully and his family. May they find strength, hope, and comfort in the immense support of the global aviation community that stands beside them.

Blue skies, Captain Sully. Thank you for everything. You will always be one of aviation's greatest heroes.✈️👨‍✈️💙

A British Classic!! BOAC-Cunard Boeing 707-436 G-APFO Panoramic Aviation Artwork.
G-APFO was a Boeing 707-436 operated by BOAC-Cunard, a joint venture between British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) and the Cunard shipping line from 1962 to 1966. Delivered in 1960 to BOAC, it was transferred to the joint venture in July 1962 before returning to BOAC in 1966, sporting a distinct livery with "Cunard" titles during that period.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been in touch recently. I'm currently experiencing a very high volume of email enquiries and commission requests, and while I'm doing my very best to reply to everyone as quickly as I can, I'm running a little behind with both emails and some commissioned artwork.

As many of you know, Airliners Illustrated is a one-person business, so every email, every artwork, and every order is created and handled personally by me. I truly appreciate your patience and understanding while I work through everything.

I'm incredibly grateful for the support you've shown and for trusting me to create these special aviation artworks. Please rest assured that I will get back to everyone and complete every commission as soon as possible.

Thank you for your continued patience, kindness, and support, it really does mean so much.

Thank you.

More than just a piece of artwork, this is a unique celebration of a lifetime dedicated to aviation—designed to preserve memories, honour achievements, and tell a remarkable career story for generations to come.
