The Hindenburg Tragedy 70 Years Later

The LZ129 Hindenburg airship crashed at Lakehurst, New Jersey, 70 years ago today on May 6, 1937.

Leslie Charteris was a passenger on the March 4, 1936 maiden flight of the Hindenburg, just over a year before the disaster.

Charteris was also the main character in the book, Hindenburg Murders, by Max Allan Collins.

More information about the Hindenburg can be found on Wikipedia, at Amazon.com, or at the Hindenburg Historical Society.
