Say Hello To Alex Manning!

With the final days before the official start to EAA AirVenture 2007 counting down all too rapidly... and, not quickly enough... ANN's senior staff is all-too-aware of the Herculean task ahead of us in reporting EVERYTHING that's news at The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration.

Fortunately, this year we'll have some help... and some really GREAT help at that. As we've already told you, Aero-News is bringing its largest staff EVER to AirVenture this year, to not only increase our print and audio coverage of the greatest (air) show on Earth, but also to help us kick off Aero-TV. (Come to think of it... "Herculean" doesn't begin to cover it...)

Over the next several days, we thought we'd take the time to introduce you to the print stringers, video crews, and senior staffers who will be bringing our readers and listeners all the news that's fit to pixilate, modulate and videotape from Oshkosh this year.

And now, without further ado...

Alex Manning

Alex was born in the northwest US, and grew up on a small island outside of the city of Seattle. He enjoys spending most of his time outdoors going climbing and surfing. Growing up on an island has given him an interesting perspective on life and the relationships we make along the way.

He has worked in photography since he was young. Finding great pleasure in hearing and telling stories, Alex pursued a career in photojournalism. He recently graduated from the Rocky Mountain School of Photography and the Brooks Institute of Photography, where he studied photojournalism as well as videography.

Now at Aero-News, he is looking forward to working with his videography in the field of aviation.

Stay tuned as we introduce more of our stringers and staffers in days to come!
