In the course of a lecture at Munich Dr. Eckener, who designed the Graf Zeppelin (LZI27) and piloted it to America and back, stated that the summer programme for the airship included another transatlantic flight, also a flight around the world.
Dr. Eckener says he expects the new Zeppelin to be larger than the present one. It will be known as LZI2B and will be completed in the autumn.
