The rise and fall of the R101 airship - Nick Cooke

Jackmans Community Centre, Ivel Court SG6 2NL.

Nick Cooke (who gave us a great talk last year on Orford Ness) is coming back to talk about the rise and fall of the R101 airship. He will cover the period prior to the R101, his family’s involvement with the Royal Airship Works and Short Brothers, and some of the details of the airship. The crash site in France is discussed, along with what remains of the Airship Works today.
