Now all roads lead to France and heavy is the tread
Of the living; but the dead returning lightly dance.

Recommended: Videos from the Historical Aviation Film Unit

If you enjoy watching the aircraft of the Great War in the air and in all their restored beauty, the videos of the Historical Aviation Film Unit from Down Under are hard to beat. My favorites are the dogfight sequences where they match some of the classic fighters of the war. Here are a couple of stills I grabbed from two of the hundreds of videos they make available.
