In 1903 the Wright Brothers achieved their dream of powered flight and from then on man's domination of the skies became a reality. The military potential of aircraft was obvious from the outset. In Britain these early days of military aviation were pioneered by a group of enthusiastic men who were based at Lark Hill, Wiltshire where the rolling plains became ideal landing grounds. This book charts its early days and its influence on First World War aviation.
