British Army Dirigible No 2 - March 1, 2010

This view of the gondola of British Army Dirigible No 2 shows one of the propellors, which could be rotated to move the dirigible forward, up, or down. British Army Dirigible No 1 was called the Nulli Secundus. I guess this one could have been called the Secundus. From the 30-April-1910 issue of Flight. Click on the image to see a larger version.

The image comes from a wonderful resource, all issues of Flight magazine from 1909 to 2005:
