About This Book
It surveys aviation's rapid wartime development, describing aircraft types, pilot training, and the physical and psychological demands on service airmen. Practical guidance and technical descriptions cover seaplanes, airships, reconnaissance and combat tactics, while a substantial diary-like section recounts frontline incidents, raids, and aerial engagements. Anecdotes illustrate hazard, courage, and everyday routines, and closing chapters consider legal, tactical, and technological issues and prospects for postwar aviation.
