Abstract  Data freely available on the Internet-CCD images from Stardial, data from the Northern Sky Variability Survey (NSVS), the Automated All-Sky Survey (ASAS), the Hipparcos Epoch Photometry Annex, and visual observations from the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO)-are combined to characterize the behavior of 10 long period variables (LPVs) in Aquila. We present updated light elements for VV Aql, EF Aql, GX Aql, GY Aql, V502 Aql, V543 Aql, V544 Aql, V558 Aql, V893 Aql, and V1541 Aql.
