Vignette

I remember watching a majestic dirigible move across the sky. This was no blimp, but a huge metal framed hydrogen filled airship of the Hindenberg class. The Hindenberg (as you may know) came to a disasterous end by fire at Lakehurst New Jersey in 1937 with many fatalities - ending, as well, the use of these majestic ships as a means of air travel.
