“The history of airship flight in general, and Zeppelin airships in particular, is inextricably linked with the airship sheds. The so majestic, invulnerable and impressive “Giants of the Air” were dependent upon these no less impressive buildings. Indeed, such buildings were indispensable for the construction, maintenance and operation of airships.”
