12/22/09 - I have added a message board to the website. I hope this will be a good tool for all of us to get to know each other that have interest in helicopter history. I hope to see you all in the forums and get to know you. Please take a look. The link for it is on the left side of this page. After that click on General Info and that will take you to the board
12/10/09 - OK, I have 1945-1960 covers up and working. I will continue to work on getting up some new issues soon. If you find anything not working, let me know. I will continue to work out any problems as time permits.
On another note, This website is for informational purposes only and to share the real history of the helicopter. I do not publish or distribute the magazine. I have received many request for sample issues of the magazine. This publication ended in April of 1960. I welcome any and all comments about the site. You can reach me using the link at the bottom of the page.
6/21/06 - I have posted up some really nice photos of helicopters in Iraq. There are some must see pictures in here. Maybe if we are lucky, SSG Doheny will send more! Check out the Helicopters in Iraq link in the submitted photos page.
This site is for people interested in American Helicopter magazine as well as general aviation intrests.
I have been collecting American Helicopter magazines since about 1980 and now have roughly 90 different issues.
I started scanning the magazines that I have and putting them up on this site.
I have started at Dec 1945, Vol1 No1 and will work my way through the years.
This will be a long ongoing project, working on it as I get the time.
If you would like to see something from a certain issue or year, let me know and I will see what I can do.
I have been able to put together a picture collection of thumbnail images with a link to a larger picture.
I'll get a least the cover of the ones that I have up soon.
Some of the pictures I have got off the web, so they are kind of lousy quality.
Got a nice photo? Would you like to see it on this site?
Send me any helicopter or airplane photos you have and I will put them up on the site for all to enjoy.
1945
