Assuming it's for a single 8x10, you would need $2.08 to cover it.
I'm not sure what you mean by "not have to pay for airmail".

It depends on the weight of the SASE and items being returned, the envelope size only tells us the classification. It is true that there is no extra charge for airmail. All mail leaving the US and going overseas is sent that way now, including mail to the UK.

As previously mentioned, you'll need $2.08 to cover it.
I'm still not sure what you mean by "free airmail". Airmail is the cheapest option to get ship something out of the US, but it isn't free.
