(IIRC) the maritime aviation at the Battle of Jutland consisted of a number of Zeppelin's out looking for the British Fleet and a British Float Plane Carrier out looking for the Germans. They found each other. So - (myself not recalling where the carriers float planes were) - the Zeppelin which found the Float Plane Carrier proceeded to try and bomb it - but wasn't having much luck hitting the moving ship. The Zeppelins crew was however bemused by the fact that the British had a lot of Riflemen out on deck shooting at them. This was funny until the Zeppelin began to lose altitude due to all the bullet holes put in it's gas bags. At that point - it was time to leave. .
