Comments on: Max Schmeling on the Hindenburg http://www.airships.net The Graf Zeppelin, Hindenburg, U.S. Navy Airships, and other Dirigibles Wed, 08 Sep 2010 22:19:12 +0000 hourly 1 By: event management solutions http://www.airships.net/hindenburg/flight-schedule/max-schmeling#comment-5982 event management solutions Tue, 24 Aug 2010 12:21:08 +0000 http://www.airships.net/?page_id=3059#comment-5982 Sounds like Schmeling lead a very interesting life, especially the part about him being torn when it came to being a Nazi. Makes you wonder how many Hitler followers were the same. I haven't read much about the Hindenburg disaster so I'll have to read up on that.

A classmate and i are doing a huge college project on the hindenburg disaster. It seems so many of you have sources and references i do not know of. I know how difficult it is to find them, almost impossible. If you have any you would be willing to hand over, we would be very extremely grateful. The e-mail is: at2010@live.com Please write us if you have any references regarding the different theories about the disaster, mostly the difference between the american and the german explanation. We would also be very intersted in articles written around the disaster, from both europe (germany in particular) and the US as well. We know the times wrote something, but we cant find it. Links would be helpfull too. Please write. // Sis and Sophie Hi!
