About
A home for the aircraft you love
Collectwall Aviation is a place to share your aircraft and airport photos with people who love aviation as much as you do. It is the first community on Collectwall, a home for photography enthusiasts, and it is built by spotters, for spotters.

Why we built it
Many of us know the feeling.
You pick your favourite shot of the day, edit it with care and send it to one of the big screened photo databases. Then you wait, often close to two weeks, while it sits in a queue. When the answer finally comes, it can be a rejection for a touch of softness, a horizon slightly off, too much grain or a subject that "isn't a good motive". A photo you were proud of never gets seen.
Those sites have their standards, and they do valuable work. But after a few rejections, a lot of spotters quietly stop uploading. Their best moments stay on a hard drive, and the hobby loses the photos that made them fall in love with it in the first place.
We wanted a place where that doesn't happen.
Post whenever you like
There is no screening queue on Collectwall. Your photo goes on your wall and in front of other spotters the moment you post it, day or night, whenever you get home from the fence. We only ask that it follows a few simple rules: it is your own photo, it is about aviation, and the aircraft can actually be seen. You'll find them on the upload page.
And your photos can stay sharp. Plus and Pro members keep their photos at up to 2048 px, so every rivet and every bit of livery detail comes through.
A wall, not a database
Your profile here isn't a spreadsheet of registrations. It is a wall of your photos: the aircraft you waited hours for, the evening light you got lucky with, the airshow you'll talk about for years. People follow, like and comment because they enjoy the same things you do. Collectwall is built on that shared love of aviation, not on numbers.
You can still keep your stats, collections and registrations if you like them. They are there to help you enjoy your photos, not to judge them.
Share it anywhere
Every photo, profile and collection has a share button for Instagram, Facebook, Threads and X. Wall Story turns a few of your photos into one picture sized for stories, free for every member, and our editors pick favourites for Editor's choice on the home page.
Your flight history
Keep a log of the flights you have taken and see every route on a world map, coloured by how often you flew it. Import the file your logbook app exports, then share a Collectwall Passport with the flags of every country you landed in. Starter keeps 50 flights, Plus and Pro 3,000, plus three special edition passports. How it works
Everything you can do
- Share aviation photos with no screening queue: Post your aircraft and airport photos the moment you take them. No screening queue, sharp uploads up to 2048 px, batch uploads and a photo wall that is yours.
- Make your profile your own: Portfolio pages, colour themes, cover photos, a welcome screen, your own wall order and collection layouts: set up your aviation profile the way you like it.
- Flight map and flight log: Log the flights you have taken and see every route on a world map, coloured by how often you flew it. Import your logbook file and share your Collectwall Passport.
- Aircraft registrations, airports and types: Look up an aircraft registration, an airport or an aircraft type and see every photo members have shared of it, with the airline and where it was taken.
Enjoy it
We hope you enjoy every part of Collectwall. Your support is what keeps us maintaining the platform and building more features, and we are listening to what you would like next. Thank you for being here.
