Hey, this might be a silly question but why do you think the Valyrians put together a dedicated Air Force when they knew that dragons were the true source of their power? Did the dragon lords not want to put their personal dragons in danger or did they just not want to create a military establishment where all dragon riders are equal?

I think it’s the latter – dragonriders weren’t the type to answer to anyone else; hell they had to create a republic just to ensure that everyone was formally equal to keep the dragonriders happy. 

And also, you don’t normally need more than a few dragons at a time: a dedicated Air Force would be massive overkill in most situations.
