Great find, Spud!
Great pictures! Seems the passengers had lots of fun onboard this "ship".
Thanks for sharing! 8)

If anybody`s interested...There`s a cool freeware Zeppelin Luftschiff for FSX.
Never tried it flying, but the pictures looked very promising.
Just look:

I'll have to look for the AI version after I finish downloading the model and take a spin.  Thanks for the link!

I have that Zeppelin, for FSX.  I like it.  One has the "23 and me" ad on it, like the one Bernard was in.  One comes blank, and I put my own graphics on the sides of it.  Well, not my own graphics.  It's the "A2A Simulations" logo girl.  She's a big girl now. ;D
