One of Aviation Week's most popular and distinguishing features has been hands-on flight reports written by the magazine’s pilots and engineers.

One thing holds as true today as it did in 1916: It’s all about the future.

Starting 13 years after Kitty Hawk, Aviation Week has been there to document almost the entire history of the aerospace industry.

We reveal what you deem to be the top five Aviation Week covers of all time in defense, space, commercial aviation and business aviation.

A guide to the aircraft and spacecraft featured on the cover of our 100th anniversary issue and a look at the artist, Ted Williams.

Aviation and aerospace advanced rapidly in the first decades after the Wright brothers’ 1903 flight. Wind tunnels brought understanding of lift and drag, wood-and-wire biplanes gave way to the stressed-skin monoplanes, wing warping to hydraulic-boosted flight controls

Two technology thrusts that continue to reshape aerospace, materials and computers, began to have a major impact in the 1950s and 60s. Computer-aided design became crucial as airframes moved from bonded-metal structures to carbon-fiber composites. Computational fluid dynamics became the key to advances in aerodynamics.

From its unveiling of the B-52 bomber and Boeing 707 jet to the classified RQ-180 unmanned aircraft and China’s anti-satellite weapon, Aviation Week has produced some legendary scoops over the past 100 years. Here are some of our favorites.
