Welcome to the Dirigible Magazine Online Library

Dirigible is the Airship Heritage Trust in-house magazine, issued free of charge three times a year to members. Dirigible Magazine covers a wide range of airship topics, from the early days of lighter than air travel, to more recent decades.

The library contains all of our editions, starting from the first edition in April 1989, up to the present day.

The Dirigible Archive contains a wealth of articles from editions published when the organisation first started often submitted by the founder members of the Trust, and relatives of the airship crews. Many of the articles have never been published in books, and often contain the latest research and updates on the history of lighter than air travel.

Newsletters Archive

We also have a membership newsletter, and the newsletter archive can be accessed here
