I have over 25 years copies of Flight International. All carefully stored and in mint condition.

How much might they be worth and where is the best place to advertise them?

A colleague suggested they might be worth £100 a year, perhaps £2000 for the whole lot. Would make me happy anyway.

Comments anyone?

Even better anyone want to buy them?

Don't hold your breath for too long.......................Flight has become full of technical news and little of whats really happening in the industry in the last few years, that the jobs pages and Uncle Roger are the only bit's worth reading.
I suppose there are some who drool over the in depth fold out posters of the latest contra rotating semi - reversible thrust bucket engine/fighter plane, but IMHO the magazine is extremely dry.
I've no doubt that a local aviation museum or archive would be extremely grateful for them, and would be only too happy to acknowledge the source, if you were prepared to donate them.
Somehow, I can't see a queue of folk trampling their way to your door armed with cash. :)
