First published in 1927 as Popular Aviation, it is read by pilots, aircraft owners, aviation enthusiasts and aviation-oriented executives in business, commercial and general aviation markets worldwide. It has the largest paid subscription, newsstand, and international circulation of any U.S.-based aviation magazine, according to its former publisher the Bonnier Corporation, and is promoted as "the world's most widely read aviation magazine". The magazine first began publishing in 1927 as Popular Aviation soon after Charles Lindbergh's historic transatlantic flight. It was given the name Aeronautics briefly from 1929-1930 and was changed back to Popular Aviation until 1942, when it became Flying. This special issue on U.S. Naval Aviation at War has articles by Admiral Ernest King, Col. Frank Knox, and Rear-Admiral John McCain, among others. Among the topics covered are The Naval Air Arm, Aircraft Carriers, Scout Bomber, Scout Observation, Patrol Bomber, Torpedo Bomber, Marines, Paratroops, Gliders, Barrage Balloons, Coast Guard, Air Transport, Convoy, Aerology, Air Intelligence, Catapult, Flight Training, Armament, and Life-saving Equipment. U.S. Naval Aviation in World War II transformed the nature of warfare, shifting the balance of power from battleships to aircraft carriers. It drove the Allied victory in the Pacific through rapid mobilization, critical tactical innovations, and technological superiority. The U.S. Navy and Marine Corps relied on several iconic, specialized aircraft to achieve air superiority and project power across the Pacific:Fighters: The Grumman F4F Wildcat held the line early in the war. It was later heavily supplemented by the Grumman F6F Hellcat, which outclassed Japanese Zeroes, and the Vought F4U Corsair, an inverted gull-wing fighter renowned for its speed and firepower. Dive Bombers: The Douglas SBD Dauntless formed the backbone of the Navy's dive-bombing force, dealing fatal blows to Japanese carriers at the Battle of Midway. It was later replaced by the heavier, more advanced Curtiss SB2C Helldiver. The Grumman TBF (and General Motors TBM) Avenger was the primary strike aircraft used to deliver heavy torpedoes and bombs against enemy shipping. Patrol and Observation: The Consolidated PBY Catalina was a crucial long-range flying boat used for reconnaissance, anti-submarine warfare, and search-and-rescue operations. The Vought OS2U Kingfisher operated from battleships and cruisers for artillery spotting and rescues. Instead of keeping carriers with the main battle fleet, the U.S. Navy developed the fast carrier task force (such as Task Force 58). These highly mobile strike forces allowed the Navy to project massive air power anywhere in the Pacific. The Thach Weave was invented by Commander John S. "Jimmy" Thach; this two-plane defensive tactic allowed slower U.S. fighters (like the F4F Wildcat) to counter and shoot down the highly maneuverable Japanese Zero. The Navy introduced CICs on ships, serving as a localized command-and-control center that integrated radar data to coordinate fleet air defense and direct fighters in real-time. Naval aviation extended far beyond carrier decks. The Naval Air Transport Service (NATS) expanded massively, flying tens of millions of miles to ferry critical cargo, mail, personnel, and life-saving medical supplies (such as whole blood) to forward-operating bases and fleet hospitals. Additionally, utility squadrons and land-based patrol wings systematically neutralized enemy chokepoints and protected Allied supply lines from Axis submarines.
