Talk:America (airship)

Believe "Reisenberg" should be "Riesenberg" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.196.14.72 (talk) 19:48, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I removed a comment added to end of article reading "The America was not a non rigid airship- she had a full keel that extended the length of her envelope classifying her as a semi-rigid airship" -- if true the article should be edited, not have contradictory info at bottom.

It wasn't Bader Field (Atlantic City)
The America didn't take off from Bader Field, which didn't exist in 1910. It was kept in a hangar by the inlet and towed by yacht just offshore before the moorings were cut and the airship took off from over the water. Clamdigger7 (talk) 18:55, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
