It would be interesting to know more accurately where they are flying, Maybe a soft ware that would recognize the lakes, bays and islands from satelite images. Would be cool to see how theese places have changed.
Rare moving images of these LTA ships - thanks. I am not sure they are all of the LZ129. The engine cars in the beginning looked like those of the Graf Zeppelin-2, which never went to America. The images through the round portlites are from the lower tail fin auxiliary control station and you can clearly see no propellers on the engine cars. The Graf Zeppelin -2 had tractor type propellers, in front of the engine, versus what the Hindenburg (LZ129) had. The NJ footage is real.
amazing stuff
