To fly in WWII was dangerous, to fly in WWI was miles beyond that. Still history's most viscerally bloody aerial conflict and yet a few can still give a smile to the camera whilst participating in it.

1 Sqn RAF at Clairmarais (not far from Ypres) in July 1918. Not many know that the scale of slaughter in the air was at one of its worst in the final summer and autumn months of the war.
