What eventually was called World War I was full of stories of flying aces and aerial dogfights, but that war over Europe introduced another type of flying warfare as well: the zeppelin, floating passenger craft commissioned by the German army and navy for use during the war. Most of the flights were for reconnaissance, but there were bombing missions as well, over England, with the sight of the giant dirigibles often striking as much fear into the locals as the bombs themselves.
