We think of the air war during the First World War as mostly about fighters and dogfights. But as the war progressed, the opportunities for aerial bombardment steadily increased. By 1917 bombing was a key weapon in the air arsenal of both sides. But how did they do it, and was it effective? Pete and Gary continue the stories of the men of the Royal Flying Corps, based on their new book, Laugh or Fly.

And on the ground the pressure was mounting, as the Allies faced a new German onslaught. In the skies over the Western Front, the men of the RFC kept fighting, and kept dying. Pete and Gary continue the stories of the men of the Royal Flying Corps, based on their new book, Laugh or Fly.
