Title: Aeroplanes and flyers of the First World War
Description: The antique aeroplanes shown here represent a capsule history of the development of aviation from 1903 to 1913. In the ten short years that followed the first success of the Wright brothers, aeroplanes grew from powered gliders to four-engined transports capable of carrying a dozen people, and were at home on land, in the air and on the sea. - p.
