Reports about Whitehead appeared occasionally and advertisements for Whitehead Motors appeared regularly in "Aeronautics".
In a 2012 article in NY Magazine, Tom Crouch refers to "Aeronautics" as "the leading aeronautical journal of the era" (and not as an "obscure mechanics magazine"), albeit in a later time-frame:
"Ernest LaRue Jones, Secretary of the Aero Club of America and the editor of Aeronautics, the leading U.S. aeronautical journal of the era, was among the well-known experimenters who hoped to try their luck at Morris Park."
