Cases of bygone days, an excellent selection of photographs, you can see your photographer was in the twentieth detachment of corps aviation. It would be very interesting to trace the fate of people posing for the artist.

An excellent selection and quality of photos in spite of the good age! It is interesting to compare what happened (100 years ago) and what became ... These people stood at the origins of our aviation!

Yes, the simplicity of the aircraft structures is striking. And after all these heroes showed heroism and resourcefulness of the Russian heroes of the pilots!

Great pictures. Pilots are dandies; lower ranks are not infantry either. Curious: hangar tent. Interestingly in the years of World War II such were used?
