EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the colossal Zeppelin-Staaken VGO R III, serial number 10/15, a unique German biplane that graced the skies during the First World War. Built as a heavy transport aircraft, this biplane was the only one of its kind to be constructed, making its operational debut near Riga in Latvia in August 1916. With its impressive size came a relatively slow maximum speed of 75 mph, making it a sight to behold on the ground as much as in the air. The men working around the aircraft give a sense of scale, with the wingspan stretching far beyond them. The Zeppelin-Staaken VGO R III, a testament to the ingenuity and ambition of the era, played a significant role in the history of aviation during the Great War. Its legacy continues to inspire awe and fascination among aviation enthusiasts today.
