0 a large aircraft without wings, consisting of a large bag filled with gas that is lighter than air and driven by engines. The pilot, passengers, etc. travel in a structure hanging below.
They are dirigible balloons, and ballooning is 150 years old.
It is perfectly clear that they are to be used for dirigible balloons, which will work in connection with their fleet.
The expenditure on dirigible balloons and aeroplanes has amounted to about £19,000.
The dirigible is knocked out by its size and speed vulnerability by the aeroplane in regard to that work.
I, of course, have no views in regard to the use either of dirigibles or of aeroplanes from the military and naval standpoint.
I think we have got as many dirigibles as we can work at the present time.
Another will be put in hand later, and it is estimated these two new dirigibles will be completed next financial year.
How much of the £85,000 is set apart for dirigibles and aeroplanes?
