World War One Aviation - Muzeum Lotnictwa Krakow

Here are some pictures of the World War One aircraft on display at the Muzeum Lotnictwa in Krakow, Poland. I am grateful to Marek Gierlinski for acting as a host and tour guide. Note that these pictures were bought at the museum, and are probably copyright - so personal use only, please.

The Museum now has its own official WWW site.
