I like aviation and all but knowing general history is much more important than this. Importance of these wars will lower, further in future we go, sure it's a bit sad but that's how it goes. + airplanes were pretty minor thing during ww1.
Edit.
One thing came to mind... Yanks Werent really part of ww1 so they aren't so interested in it, meanwhile in french it's still the great war that they speak of.
