The 1st generation of faster aircraft was the Nieuport 11. The allied introduced a new tactic: 3 or 4 fighters together made up a unit called a "Flight" which proved effective in the still more ruthless fighting over battlefields like Verdun and Somme. The pilots flew without a parashute - it was heavy, took up space, and especially the british commanders did'nt want the pilots to lose their aggressiveness if they had the option of bailing out, when they got into trouble. At the german side master pilots as Oswald Boelcke and Max Immelmann developed new tactics, that are still in use today, and started training programs of combatflying for new airmen. As a result of this and with new planes as the Albatross the germans once again took the upper hand. But death took its heavy toll on both sides through bullets, fire and design flaws. Carl Vendler
