Paper model building fun with the Schreiber-Bogen cardboard model building airship Hindenburg D-LZ 129 In the fall of 1931, the Luftschiffbau-Zeppelin-Gesellschaft began building the airship LZ 129, which was named Hindenburg in honor of the German President Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg. The "Hindenburg" was intended to relieve the burden on the airship "Graf Zeppelin", which could no longer handle passenger and freight traffic on its own. After four years of construction, the LZ 129 was completed and made its first workshop trip across Lake Constance in March 1936. The "Hindenburg" was the largest airship ever built and represented a significant development in German airship construction. With a length of 245 meters, it was only 8.4 meters longer than the "Graf Zeppelin", but with a hull diameter of 41.2 meters and around 200,000 cubic meters it contained almost twice the amount of gas of the older ship. Instead of the flammable hydrogen gas, the LZ 129 was to be filled with the incombustible, very expensive helium, which was only available in large quantities from the USA. Hitler had become too powerful and at that time there were already fears of a European war. The Hindenburg was primarily used as a passenger ship crossing the Atlantic to North America. A journey in the quietly gliding giant from Germany to the USA took approx. 65 hours, the return journey around 52 hours. The ship's capacity was sufficient for 50 passengers, who experienced a journey in complete luxury. The guest cabins were comfortable, functional and quiet. The lounge, writing room, dining room, gallery with viewing windows and smoking lounge were more comfortably equipped than in any other aircraft. The crew of the "Hindenburg" consisted of 50 to 60 men, 10 to 15 of whom looked after the physical well-being of the passengers. The "Hindenburg" was used for a total of 63 trips. On 6 In May 1937, disaster struck at Lakehurst Airport. Shortly before landing, which had to be postponed several times due to unfavorable weather, the airship caught fire and burned out completely within just 32 seconds. The sad result of the accident was 36 deaths - 13 passengers, 22 crew and one member of the ground crew. The “Graf Zeppelin” also stopped operating after this accident; the end of German airship travel was heralded.
