| Great magazine for the general reader and aerospace specialistI'm not the biggest aerospace junkie but I do go to air shows and watch the occasional airplane show on the Discovery channel. This magazine is full of information that will appeal to the general reader as well as those whose life revolves around what's in the sky. For instance in one issue we have an article on how the Me-262 has been rebuilt and how the Joint Strike fighter was saved. Saved due to hundreds of individual contributions that made the fighter light enough to meet the military specs. There are also articles that appeal to those in the aerospace industry.
And since it's by the Smithsonian the pictures are nothing short of superb!

| Great content, poor edittingI have been subscribed to AW&ST for almost two full years, and have to say the magazine is great. The content is both varied and informative, and the whole world is covered fairly well. I am currently trying to figure out how I am going to scrounge up the money to renew my subscription for another year.
The only real complaint that I have had with the magazine is the poor editing. I don't expect a perfect magazine, but the frequency of simple spelling mistakes and occasional grammatical errors is astounding.

| One of the Few Print Sci Fi and Related Genre Mags LeftOnce upon a time there were lots of Sci Fi, Fantasy and Horror magazines in print. OK, many were pulps, but they were cheap and often lots of fun. They also gave a lot of people a chance to express themselves and entertain others.
There are not too many of these print magazines left. Sure there are many online now, but call me old and out of touch, but it is so much more satisfying to read something in paper format. As a librarian said to me just this week when I complained that my favorite magazines at the library were no longer available in print format there - but you can see them online here. I said thanks, but no thanks. She said, I know what you mean - online is fine to look stuff up and for email, but for real reading, print is better. I agree.
Anyway, I say let's support these print magazines. I hear this one has been going strong for 40 years too.

| Hit and MissNot all that great to be honest. Each issue is short, about 30 pages or so. The only thing about it that is consistently worth reading is Stanton Friedman's column, although it gets repetative pretty fast because he constantly uses his own set of personalized ufological "buzz words." It seems like in every column he mentions "tribal warfare," "3,000 trace cases," "SETI cultists," "long term survival," etc.
Occasionally interesting articles will be published, but mostly it's just Stan Friedman, a star map and accounts of UFO sightings. And honestly, UFO sightings aren't that interesting. One can only read "I saw a weird light zipping around in the sky" so many times before one would rather be anal probed than keep going. It would make a good free newsletter, but it sure as heck isn't worth $[...] bucks for a subscription.
If you're still interested in it despite my review, visit the Black Vault Wiki where PDFs of all of the pre-2008 back issues are available to download for free.
