March 31 is the 75th anniversary of LZ-129 Hindenburg’s first flight across the Atlantic.
To commemorate the anniversary the Great Circle Mapper website has posted this chart and a description of the ship’s voyage between Germany and South America from March 31 to April 10, 1936.
OK, thanks Dan…My source must be mistaken…

It was thought that Adolf Hitler was aboard the Hindenburg for one flight. I believe there exists a one-day philatelic cover of this event…Truth or fiction? Thanks for any reply….
Hitler was never aboard any airship.
