Aeronautical Society of America
(combine with other pages)
See prior history under the entity beginning Aeronautic Society of New York. By 1916, a special section for the library of the Aeronautical Society of America had been established in the Library of the Engineering Societies of New York. The library contained a file of 42 foreign aeronautical journals donated by the magazine Aeronautics. By January 1916, the society had distributed some 17,000 copies of the Chronology of Aviation by Hudson Maxim and William J. Hammer, reprinted from the World's Almanac, 1911.
The Journal of the Aeronautical Society of America was published monthly under the Lee S. Burridge Foundation Jan.1916-Apr. 1917. It was said continued by Aero World, which was published Aug. 1916-Feb. 1917 as the official journal of the society. (puzzling overlap between the two publications.)
