"Aviation in Canada, 1917-1918" by Alan Sullivan is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work documents the establishment and operations of the Royal Flying Corps, Canada, during a significant period of World War I. It delves into the contributions of Canadian forces to aerial warfare, along with detailing the various departments and organizations involved in aviation development and training in Canada. The opening of the book provides a backdrop to the urgency for creating the Royal Flying Corps in Canada, citing the aerial conditions faced on the Western Front in 1916 which highlighted the necessity for a dedicated Canadian wing. It describes early challenges and developments in aviation, including the need for pilots and aircraft to respond quickly to the demands of war. Subsequently, the text outlines planning meetings, recruitment efforts, and the establishment of training programs and facilities across Canada—setting the stage for a comprehensive account of the Corps' operations and contributions throughout the war.
