Description
When the First World War began in August 1914, aeroplanes were a novelty. Despite this, Australia had established a military flying school and corps. From a first class of four student pilots the Australian Flying Corps would grow to number almost 4000 by the armistice. Michael Molkentin reveals the remarkable story of the airmen and the mechanics.
