in-house magazine DIRIGIBLE,
along with our newsletters.
A copy of the excellent book, Airship Navigator
by E.A. Johnston, will be sent to all new members.
Airship Navigator tells the fascinating story of the mainstream
of British Airships from the point of one man who flew them between
1916 and 1930 - and also contains an account of some pioneering
commercial aeroplane operations in which he was involved in the
formative years of 1923-27.
As well as telling the story of his father life, "Johnnie
Johnson" also offers his own re-examination of the original
evidence relating to the loss of R101, and of a computer study
of the behavior of the airship in those last moments at Beauvais.
DIRIGIBLE
is a high quality 48 page journal full of leading articles and
reviews by authorities in the lighter than air field. A must for
all Airship enthusiasts.
We hold an AGM online via Teams, and also a lecture or show and
share meeting afterwards. Members are able to come, meet other
members as a social gathering, and be part the organisation.

As a voluntary
run organisation we rely on the income from our talks, membership
subscriptions and sales. We receive no government or local authority
funding. All of our Trustees and volunteers offer their time for
free in running the organisation, and giving up evenings and weekends
to help out.
We
are always grateful of donations and so if you would like to make
a donation to the Airship Heritage Trust, then please do so here
Membership
is vital to us as we do not receive any
Government Funding or corporate backing, and so we
rely totally on voluntary help and donations and the generosity
of the support from membership memberships. We also raise money
through donations made at our talks programme, and lectures.
However
with the rising costs for postage, and printing, we are always
dependent on our membership memberships to form the bulk of our
income.

Often reminding us of your change of address is overlooked. If
