Remember!

ยถ It is now nearly a century since the Plane was to supersede the Dirigible for all purposes.

ยถ TO-DAY none of the Planet's freight is carried en plane.

ยถ Less than two per cent. of the Planet's passengers are carried en plane.

   We design, equip and
   guarantee Dirigibles for
   all purposes.
