Aviation and Aircraft of WWI. World War I was the first major war where airplanes were used as a significant part of the military. The airplane was invented by the Wright Brothers in 1903, just 11 years before the start of World War I. When the war first began, aircraft played a small role in warfare, but, by the end of the war, the air force had become an important branch of the armed forces.
In 1908, they traveled to France and made their first public flights, arousing widespread public excitement. In 1909, the U.S. Armyâs Signal Corps purchased a specially constructed plane, and the brothers founded the Wright Company to build and market their aircraft.hen at 10:35 a.m. on December 17, in front of five witnesses, the aircraft ran down a monorail track and into the air, staying aloft for 12 seconds and flying 120 feet. The modern aviation age was born. Three more tests were made that day, with Wilbur and Orville alternately flying the airplane.
