North American Mags
There is one other publication which I think has been missed, which is Warbirds International. This is published by Challenge Publications and edited by Michael O’Leary. It is published Bi-monthly, with lots of great colour air to air shots.He is also based close to Chino, so there are lots of shots of recent projects, including the P39,(showing the solid brass milled cannon shellls which are loaded in front to help keep the nose down.)
IF you see Aeroplane Monthly , you will see a lot of O’Leary’s shots. The Helldiver on the cover a couple of issues ago being a good example. Interestingly enough, Flypast is readily available in the US and Canada, so I am sure that most enthusiasts are getting there info from here as well.

There are two: Wings and Airpower….both have been around for 30+ years and are printed by the same publisher.
Not a lot of current news on warbird movements or airshows. Aside from a brief “Warbird Report” column, most of the content consists of long features on a plane, pilot, or the development of a type of aircraft, mainly U.S.
Not bad, but I subscribe to FlyPast and buy individual copies of these when they have something I don’t know much about.

I’m not sure about the guy, but this gal reads the Warbirds of America magazine which you get when you belong to the Warbirds branch of the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association).
It is read by the owners and operators too.
