ZEPPELIN TRIALS
DELAYED BY SHORTAGE OF FUEL (Australian Press Assn.—United Service) Berlin, September 4. The trials of the Zeppelin LZI27 have been delayed. The difficulty is a sufficiency of new fuel. The trial was first expected on August 15. Formal permission has just been issued by the Air Ministry to visit England. The last Zeppelin was seen iu England in war time, but LZI27 is welcome because it will allow tlie crew to exchange technical data with the crew of the RlOO. now nearing completion. After circling London the German airship will fly on to Bedford and moor at a steel mast. She is expected to start out on her trans-Atlantic adventure early in October.
