Airliners.net is an aviation website founded by Johan Lundgren in 1997, evolving from his previous Pictures of Modern Airliners site started in 1994. On 27 July 2007, it was announced that Airliners.net had been acquired by
Demand Media, a company based in Santa Monica, California, United States. The site has recently been moved from Luleå, Sweden to Demand Media's servers in the USA.
The site features a large photo database, discussion forums, a chat room, and an aircraft history and information section. It claims to be the world's largest aviation website with over three million page views from 200,000 individuals daily, Although third party web tracking services do not corroborate these statistics, and a thread in the site related forum that has since been deleted by the moderating staff raises the issue that, with ad-blocking software enabled, hit counters register three hits per page load.
