Fun fact , the Zeopelins used hydrogen because America controlled the worlds supply of helium, and refused to sell it to the Germans because of the whole Not-See thing. Which led to the fireworks show in Jersey, which some Germans blamed the U.S. for.

It's a better idea than ever, especially if a modern airship dispatched drone aircraft. A $6 million flying aircraft carrier that can travel at 90 mph is a good, affordable idea.

Great time to the Hindenburg dirigible. It circled the world in 20 days and 4 hours. Its first flight to Rio was in april 1936. The Zeppelin Hangar is located on the premises of the Santa Cruz Air Base, a unit of the Brazilian Air Force, in the Santa Cruz neighborhood in the west zone of the city of Rio de Janeiro. It is a hangar, a large building designed to house the German airships known as Zeppelins. It is currently one of the last existing airship hangars and one of the best preserved in the world.

Bring back ZPG 2 & 3 W Blimps and Zeppelins again! Re made using the old methods, materials, and the old Zeppelin engines! I.e The Maybach 550 VL.II Gas engines and 1,100 HP DB-602 Diesel engines!

WOW that blew my mind! The fact that an airship could have prevented Pearl Harbor from being attacked is mind blowing. I've been an airship junkie since I was a kid and never knew this before. I always knew that airships were and still are the can do ships and hopefully this video would help folks to become more confident in airships instead of the tragedies of the past. Awesome video!

Same here. Crazy to think that if the Macon was around then it would have been able to help and assist well before the japanese made it to the harbor/airfields. Really want Airships to make a comeback. I'm talking old style in all not a new "modernized" replica.

My father was an LTA pilot. He once told me that for the free balloon training they carried two instruments: a compass and a roll of toilet paper. Of course I laughed! Then he explained the toilet paper -- tear off one sheet and throw it out of the basket. If the TP went up it meant you were descending, and if it went down then you were ascending.
