What was the Hindenburg air ship used for?
The airship LZ-129 Hindenburg was used for passenger, mail, and freight transportation, mainly between Germany and the United States, with additional flights between Germany and South America. Hindenburg was the fastest way for passengers and mail to cross the Atlantic at the time; the airship crossed the ocean in 2-1/2 days, as compared to the 5 days required by the fastest transatlantic ocean liners. Although designed for passenger and mail transportation, the Hindenburg was also sometimes used as a propaganda tool by the government of Nazi Germany. For example, one of the ship's first flights was a propaganda flight in support of the March 29, 1936 referendum on the remilitarization of the Rhineland, and the ship made politically-motivated appearances above the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games and the 1936 Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg.
