(wonder what mustpost had in mind- I think he changed his ideas a couple of times before going to the Russians?)
The pic is of the Cosford machine as is the one I post below. I almost felt guilty about the English instrument names, but then thought why not? It is a most beautifully shaped machine though isn't it?
Bri, you have control Sir

Ok, but we are talking about dirigibles?
I have a problem here in that I can't reconcile the shape of the front bit with the normal style of control car. The narrow diameter suggests a military use to me but I am not sure. I know that Zeppelin went in for seperate control stations for pitch and yaw, not sure about other players.

The U.S. Navy expressed interest in the R 80, and flew it on four flights for evaluation. You have control.
