Extract

What is without doubt one of the most important attempts to solve the problem of the navigation of the air is now being made on tha shores of the Bodenzee, in Wurtemberg. The general idea is that of what has hitherto been called a dirigible balloon, but this term hardly describes the huge snip with its metal framework and outer cover containing a number of balloons. It is nothing more or less than an aerial steamship.
