Air International was and is a high quality civil and military aviation magazine. It features well-written and well-illustrated articles on aircraft and their operators/air forces.
In the early 1950’s aviation and military author William Green was technical director to RAF Flying Review, then editorial director when it became Flying Review International in September 1963. With its large b+w and colour photos, cutaway drawings and colour profile drawings it became the premier aviation magazine in the UK. Unfortunately, in September 1968 it was redesigned to a larger size and now included monthly updates to the authoritative annual publication ‘Jane’s All The World’s Aircraft’, together with regular features on the aircraft industry, (simulators, avionics, components etc). This attempt at a ‘Jane’s Monthly’ was obviously not a success, as the magazine ceased publishing with the September 1970 issue.
Shortly after the demise of ‘Flying Review International’ William Green and Gordon Swanborough jointly created a new monthly magazine, of which Green remained managing editor until late 1990. The magazine was first published in June 1971 with the name ‘Air Enthusiast’. In January 1974 its title was changed to ‘Air Enthusiast International’ and finally to ‘Air International’ in July 1974.
Air International was one of the first magazines to introduce aircraft cutaways in the 1970s and 80s. The magazine included historical content until 1976, when the historical side was transferred to the same publisher's ‘Air Enthusiast Quarterly’, later shortened to ‘Air Enthusiast’. However, as of March 2006 Air International renewed coverage of historical aircraft, although in a small way only.
