By the fall of 1916, the superiority of the German Air Force in the air was undeniable. From September to November, the French Air Force lost 400 pilots. The peak of British losses occurred in the "bloody April" of 1917, when they lost 319 pilots. It is at this time that No. 56 Sqn RAFRFC is sent to France.
