Hey folks,

How about a list of the best warbird magazines on the market so we all can be reading the same material?

I'm sure that I'm not the only one who would like to update his subscription list.

Thanks! :D

1) Warbird Digest
2) Classics Wings

Why these two? #1 High quality #2 High ratio of value to $$$. The others mentioned here are OK... but my wallet is not bottomless, so I draw the line with these two. I wouldn't want to drop my subscription to either. Both are a real value in my library.

I will pick up an Aeroplane or Flypast from time-to-time when I need some reading material when traveling, etc.

Mike

I have to admit I really enjoy reading Warbird Digest. It’s a great Mag and I have always enjoyed meeting up with Tim and the staff.

It's now even BI-monthly! How can you go wrong!

Edit:
:oops:

Well, I've never seen the rest of the magazine, but I check out the warbirds section whenever I get my hands on one...

1. Warbird Digest
2. Classic Wings
3. Aeroplane Monthly
4. Flypast

At the risk of sounding like a copycat, I pick up a Warbird Digest and Air Classics whenever there's a good article (J2F Duck restored up north of here for example).
