Historic Wings established itself as one of the leading online aviation publications online in 1997. The main focus then was to bring deeply researched, interesting articles on historic topics and photo galleries about airplanes. Over 450 articles have been written over the years and the content will continue to steadily expand.

In 2021, Historic Wings established a YouTube channel -- YouTube.com/@HistoricWings -- and has been periodically publishing videos that bring its many stories to life.

In late 2022, Historic Wings announced the publication of a series of book-based solitaire air war games. Each game features deeply researched historic content, carefully generated missions and scenarios, multiple maps for solitaire war gaming, full aircraft glossaries, interspersed sections that recount the real history of the time being portrayed, and much more.
