Airship: The story of R-34 and the first east-west crossing of the Atlantic by air by Patrick Abbott
“The R-34 Ready to Start,” Sudbury Star. July 9, 1919. Page 04. --- This gigantic Leviathan of the air, called an English army slang a ‘blimp,’ with its crew of twenty three men, reached Mineola, N. Y., on Sunday morning last at 9.05 o’clock. It is the first lighter-than-air machine to attempt the transatlantic flight. The R-34 is 634 feet long and carries three boats. The wireless system is as powerful as that on the ocean liners. Major G. H. Scott, of the Royal Air Force, is in command. According to Commander Head, this will be the type of transatlantic airship that will be most successful commercially in making regular trip over the ocean. The voyage can be made in two and a half days. ---- “How The Inside of the Largest Airship Looks.” --- Interior View of Framework of the R-34 --- One is surprised to find that the inside of a lighter-than-air machine should have such heavy looking frame work. This is a rigid type of airship, and the long, cigar-shaped envelope is constructed so that she can retain her shape no matter how heavy a wind may be encountered.

Airship R-34 left Britain on 2 July 1919 and arrived at Mineola, Long Island, United States, on 6 July after a flight of 108 hours with virtually no fuel left.[14] As the landing party had no experience of handling large rigid airships, Major E. M. Pritchard jumped by parachute and so became the first person to reach American soil by air from Europe. This was the first East-West aerial crossing of the Atlantic and was achieved weeks after the first transatlantic aeroplane flight. The return journey to RNAS Pulham took place from 10 to 13 July and took 75 hours. Returned to East Fortune for a refit, R34 then flew to Howden, East Yorkshire, for crew training.
