TODAY IN HISTORY: CRASH OF THE AIRSHIP AKRON

[Above] June 23, 1932 airship LOS ANGELES. This picture was taken near the end of the zeppelin's flight career. Afterwards it was used only for on-ground training and experimentation. [Click image to enlarge.]
[Below] The airship AKRON over San Francisco, May 1932. The small dark shape behind the forward control booth (or the bridge) is an N2Y aircraft. The Akron was actually designed to carry multiple aircraft in a compartment inside the balloon. On April 4, 1932, the Akron was pushed by bad weather out to sea, where a series of human errors lead to a crash into the Atlantic, killing 73 people. [Click image to enlarge.]
