To celebrate the centenary of Polish aviation, the profiles of aviators were presented. They were selected on the basis of a review of the professional press of the interwar period. A collective portrait of aviation representatives of that period was prepared for a cognitive purpose. The subject bibliography was elaborated as a source of biographical information. The distinguished common features of the group's representatives made it easier to answer the following questions: who were the Polish aviators during the Partitions period, how they coped with the organization of aviation in independent Poland, during the period of technical imperfections; what were their attitudes towards the necessity of participating in wars.
