Because of the engine power limitations , effective payload were extremely small. Still constructed mostly of hardwood (braced with steel wires) and with linen fabric stiffened by flammable dope to form a wing surface. Aside from these primitive materials, the rudimentary aviation engineering of the time meant most aircraft were structurally fragile , and not infrequently broke up in flight especially when performing violent combat maneuvers such as pulling up from steep dives. But as early as 1909, these evolving flying machines were recognized to be not just toys, but weapons. -

Doctorate of Philosophy
Eyes All Over the Sky: The Significance of Aerial Reconnaissance in the First World War by James Streckfuss December 6, 2011 M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2002 J.D., Woodrow Wilson College of Law, 1981 B.A., University of Cincinnati, 1973 A dissertation submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the degree requirements for the degree of DOCTORATE OF PHILOSOPHY In the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences Committee Chair: Christopher Phillips 2 Abstract Historians have portrayed aviation in the First World War as a romantic alternative to the mass slaughter playing out on the ground and at sea. Young men volunteered for service in the air to escape the horrors of the trenches and their exploits made them into heroes a war-weary public could revere. As valuable as this diversion proved to civilian morale, it contributed little, if anything, to the military victory. Another global conflict broke out before aviation’s destructive power matured into a potential war winning force. This characterization has allowed historians to discuss World War I without any meaningful analysis of what role aviation played in the fighting. Connections between the air war and ground and naval operations are missing from most contemporary accounts of the war. This dissertation argues that airmen contributed greatly, shaping the manner in which armies and navies functioned in ways that influenced the outcome of battles and the length of the war. Reconnaissance, observation and photography made up the branch of World War I military and naval aeronautics that most significantly impacted the fighting. -
