Airships: A Hindenburg and Zeppelin History Site is honored as Cruising the Past’s Website of the Month. The Hindenburg was the “Titanic” of the sky.

Dan Grossman’s excellent website – www.airships.net – features the best historical look at this fascinating area of transpiration history and the Hindenburg.  There are great photos and terrific images.   Pages and blogs cover marvelous details of the Graf Zeppelin, Hindenburg, U.S. Navy Airships, and other Dirigibles.

Airships.net is filled with information at the technology and science which was expressed by the popular culture of the Machine Age, and which included the wild public enthusiasm for zeppelins in the 1920’s and 1930’s.

Airships.net is an historical site and not commercial.

The site is done as a public service and is probably the best academic reference on the subject available in cyberspace.

It is a tribute to Dan’s passion for the subject.
