Anyone recognise the biplane about halfway down? The flechettes on the ground in front of it suggest _very_ early WWI. Or are they beumbs?
All I can say for sure about the plane is that it's wearing French colors. The two "flechettes" are bombs. At that point in military aviation history, the crew manually threw the bombs from the cockpit as they flew over the target. I'm not sure what the grey thing just to the left of the forward crewman is, or the round black thing attached to the vertical "stay" for the upper wing, either.
