HC Deb 13 February 1911 vol 21 c837W
Mr. BURGOYNE

asked when the first naval dirigible airship is to be completed, and the causes of the delay in that completion?

Mr. McKENNA

The airship is nearly complete, and experiments in connection with her management and the training of her crew are in progress. The ship is experimental, and there has been no delay other than what is inevitable in these conditions.
