The magazine was first published in August 1916. Early editors Ladislas d'Orsy and Donald W. McIlhiney (1921 to 25) were Quiet Birdmen. Publisher (1927 to 29) Earl D. Osborn was also a Quiet Birdman.

Other titles the magazine has held include Aviation & Aircraft Journal (1920–1921),[2] Aviation (1922–1947),[3] Aviation Week (1947–1958),[4] Aviation Week Including Space Technology (1958–1959).[5] Starting in August 1943, McGraw-Hill published a weekly magazine called Aviation News to accompany the standard monthly issue.[6] In 1947, its staff was reincorporated into the now renamed Aviation Week. With the coming of the Space Age, the current title (Aviation Week & Space Technology) was adopted in 1960.
