Does anyone know if the Flight magazine circa 1930’s and 1940’s is avialable on line or on CD, if now where can I obtain view certain copies.

It seems the British library do have a full set – well they should really.
This entry on their catalogue covers 1909 to 1961: http://catalogue.bl.uk/F/B2RXG2KDYIT8XSAFHGF4HR3EJKLHDH9U47N4AAIEPISBI3QK3J-15985?func=full-set-set&set_number=128185&set_entry=000047&format=999
But, for those of us who can’t get to the capital easily, does anybody know of any other libraries which have copies of Flight (or Aeroplane)? There is an incomplete set at Manchester Central Library – but I don’t yet know just how incomplete.
Shortsbro: I do have – literary – one or two magazines from that period. What are you looking for specifically?

Archiving probably still being done internally on a voluntary basis so very slow. If you’re desperate, contact the office in Sutton, Surrey. Or British Library perhaps? They have to keep every copy of a published magazine iirc?

They’re not available online as of yet, they’ve just started to archive their issues as can be seen here.
