Welcome to Air Force New Monthly, (as far as I can tell) the only online publication to cover the world’s air forces. As many of you are aware, several countries have publications about their own air forces, “Airman,” “Air Force Times,” and “Air Force Magazine” pertain specifically to the United States Air Force. The Royal Air Force has “Spirit of the Air Magazine and the Canadians, “The Maple Leaf.” Not surprisingly, I couldn’t find a magazine for the Russians, nor (surprisingly, I must say) the French. This is just a taste of who’s got what when it comes to magazines affiliated with air forces around the world, and is not all of them. If you happen to know of one, share it with us! |
