Air Enthusiast was a British, bi-monthly,aviation magazine, published by theKey Publishing group. Initially begun in 1974 asAir Enthusiast Quarterly, the magazine was conceived as a historical adjunct toAir International magazine.Air International was (and remains) involved with current aviation topics and theQuarterly concerned itself with historical matters.
Each issue contained 80 pages; as a result certain articles were divided and each part appeared over a number of issues.Air Enthusiast was illustrated with colour and black-and-white photos, diagrams, profiles and three-view drawings. Earlier issues featured cutaway drawings, but these were dropped. The articles provided detail for varieties ofaircraft and events.
The magazine was published by three publishing companies and changed editors once, withWilliam Green and Gordon Swanborough as joint editors for 16 years and Ken Ellis as the sole editor for the final 16 years.[1]
The magazine ceased publishing with issue #131 (September/October 2007), becoming part ofAir International magazine.[2][3]
