  ah the lead class of the "wobbly eight". She fulfilled her design requirements but ship design advanced very rapidly and within a few years she was obsolete with the advent of Dreadnought. She was lost to a mine in 1916, with only one man lost, falling between her and the rescue ship. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_King_Edward_VII

  This is a photo of HMS Hibernia and a Short Improved S.27 biplane, likely taken in May 1912, when Hibernia was engaged in various test flights conducted by Commander Charles Samson (RN) flying the aircraft from a makeshift flight deck placed upon the forward portion of the ship. The deck was removed from Hibernia after the trials were completed. See: HMS Hibernia (1905) - Early Career
