Airship ZR-3 lands at Lakehurst amid cheers and tests
The arrival follows a rigged inspection and mood of triumph as Dr Ecker and Hugo Hecken declare success. The crew and German navigators are greeted by Major Kennedy and crowds, with the airship slowing to a stop near the hangar gate. Five hours earlier winds and icy weather challenged the voyage from Nova Scotia toward New York, but favorable tailwinds pushed the craft at speeds up to 90 miles per hour before the final approach to Lakehurst.
