The development of Spanish airpower doctrine has not been specifically addressed in previous works or papers. The objective of this paper is to provide the reader with a comprehensive analysis of such a process in order to understand what were the reasons that delayed the independence of the Spanish Air Force for so long. In describing this process, this paper focus on ideas, experiences, and organizational regulations that marked the development of Spanish airpower since its birth (1910) to 1936, just before the Spanish Civil War took place. The methodology employed in this research includes consultation and analysis of both primary and secondary sources. As primary sources, documents and official regulations from the Spanish Air Force Historical Archive, in Madrid, Spain, have been consulted, mostly related to organizational steps in the evolutionary development of the air force. As well, books and manuals written through those years have been examined, all of them in Spanish (but found in the AU Library on Maxwell AFB).
