WW1 Air Warfare

yes, he had 3 brothers and 4 sisters. he was one of eight children.

The Fokker Dr.1 was limited in its airspeed to 103mph. This was due to the additional drag from the 3 wings that were close to each other. Their main advantage was their superior maneuaverablity in a fight. The three short wings allowed the triplanes to be more maneuverable and have a much higher climb rate. Shorter wings allowed it to roll about the fuselage axis much faster. If it wanted to turn, the triplane would roll on its side and pull a tighter circle than the standard biplane. In addition, the Fokker was able to make a 180-degree turn without banking(flat turn) in just a few seconds. When Werner Voss fought his last dog-fight with 7 British SE-5's, the British pilots said they were chasing Voss at one moment and then in the next instant he would be flying directly at them. The Sopwith Triplanewas different from the Fokker in that (a) all 3 wings of the Sopwith were the same chord dimension(narrowest part of wing), (b) the space between the wings was greater (with respect to wing chord), and (c) each wing of the Sopwith had control surface. The disadvantage of the Fokker was its short fuselage and large hoizontal tail during landing. Just as the a/c flared to land, the tail surface would stall out and airflow from the main wings would not flow over the tail. Thus the pilot had no tail control just prior to touchdown. Custermen

The Committee on Public Information was formed by Woodrow Wilson. It used propaganda to promote enthusiasm and support from Americans. Newspapers, poster, radio, movies, telegraph and cable were all used to broadcast in support of the war effort. People called Minute Men were hired to speak for four minutes at every social event. Staged performance keyed to ethnicity were held in ethnic communities.

Korea and Vietnam. The USAF was created in 1947.

35 factories churned out 48,537 airplanes throughout the war. Note, this figure is spread out over 1914-1918. The Austro-Hungarian Empire produced 5,431.

At the end of the war Germany had 2,390 aircraft at the front lines, Austria had so few, the numbers aren't listed.

Out of that 48 thousand, 27,637 were shot down, crashed and damaged.

Paul Bäumer was a WWI flying ace for Germany. Where everyone can be naive about somethings some of the time, I am imagine he had probably seen and done enough in the war to be less so than the rest of us. He died in a crash in 1927, at the age of 31.

700,000 British soldiers died in WW1 with another 1.6 million wounded as well there were the following numbers from the wider British Empire.

Although there are historical accounts of dog fights going back to the 1750s, widespread activity emerged after the Civil War, with professional pits proliferating in the 1860s, mainly in the Northeast. Ironically, it was a common form of entertainment for police officers and firemen-the "Police Gazette" served as a major source of information on dog fighting for many years. Although many laws were passed to outlaw the activity, dog fighting continued to expand during the twentieth century.

The guns used in war to shoot down planes are called antiaircraft guns.

It had the highest casualty count then any other war because the chemicas they used during the war Because WWI involved the majority of the planet's population. They also used foxholes, airplanes and the latest 'weapons of mass destruction' such as 'mustard gas' and machine guns instead of the hand-to-hand combat used in all of the previous wars.This is why it was named 'The War to end all Wars' and 'The Great War' afterwards, until, that is, WWII.

In World War 1 around 8,500,000 soilders died during World War One.

Now artillery killed the most people in World War 1. But to be totally honest it is impossible to know exactly how many people died because of Artillery in World War 1.

Studies have shown however that around 65% of all deaths during World War One were caused by artillery. If we do the math this comes out to around 5,525,000 people.

So to answer your question no-one really knows but peoples best guess is that 4.5 to 5.5 million people died because of artillery in World War One.

Probably not.

The Red Baron did not use a symbol. Instead he painted his airplane entirely Red so he would stand out with the enemy and with his fellow airmen. However, he did NOT paint all his planes all-Red. His first was an Albatros D-III. Then he flew the Fokker Triplane but not just one. The last one he flew was all RED.

The highest scoring ace of Austria-Hungary painted his Albatros all Red just like the Red Baron. But he painted Skulls on his plane. He painted relatively small skulls just behind his cockpit: one on the left, one on the right and one on the top.
