The lecturer opened with a brief and general description of R. 100, which has an overall length of 709 ft. and a diameter of 133 ft., with a cubic capacity of 5,250,000 cu. ft. There are three power cars, each with two engines. These cars are situated at a considerable distance fore and aft from the passenger accommodation, and there was therefore a minimum of noise and vibration in the latter. The ship contained some 11 miles of special spiral seam tubing. Her displacement was 156 tons. In the Graf Zeppelin the cross sectional area of the girders equalled some 12 sq. ins., whereas in the British ship the cross sectional area amounted to 3 sq. ft.
