16 August 1914
Yesterday, a flying boat from the Imperial and Royal Austro–Hungarian navy dropped two bombs on the batteries at Krstac (Montenegro) in the first such attack by a flying boat in history. The aeroplane was a Lohner of the type previously described in this journal, serial number E18. It was flown by Linienschiffsleutnant Konstantin Maglic, with Oberleutnant Pieler aboard as his observer.
