Trivia
The LZ36 of history first flew on 8 March 1915 and was operated by the German navy (not the army) as 'L9'. The ship carried out 74 reconnaissance missions in the North Sea, four air-raids on England dropping 5683kg of bombs, and several attacks on British submarines. It caught fire and was destroyed in its shed at Fuhlsbuttel on 16 September 1916 together with L6.

Errores
One primary goal of the mission is to destroy "the" Magna Carta, thus demoralizing the British people. However, unlike the U.S. Constitution, the Magna Carta is not a single document but a series of nearly identical charters issued by royal seal. There were 11 "originals," each considered equally original, issued in 1215, of which 4 still survive. There were additional "exemplifications" issued under royal seal throughout the 13th Century, of which 20 more also survive. The destruction of a single version would, therefore, fail to accomplish the German mission of destroying the document.

Citas
Geoffrey von Richter-Douglas: Where are the parachutes?
Frau Dr. Ericka Altschul: What parachutes?
Geoffrey von Richter-Douglas: Well, for emergencies. How do you get out of here quickly?
Von Gorian: Jump!

worth seeing just for the aerial scenes

While I will admit that the plot of ZEPPELIN is okay and not the best I have ever seen, I still like this movie a lot. Michael York plays a British agent that pretends to defect in order to learn the German airship secrets. Along the way he meets the extremely attractive Elke Sommer, though what all that has to do with war, I never was really certain.

The film concerns an era that we seldom talk about--WWI and the terror that seized the Allies when the Germans first rained bombs on an unsuspecting London. For the life of me, I can't recall another movie that mentions this in any way, so historically speaking this is an important topic.

I was fortunate enough to have seen this film on the big screen when it first came out in the very early 1970s. I remember sitting in the first row in the balcony and watching the big screen as the Zeppelin first appeared up out of the clouds--pretty reminiscent of the shark attacking in the later film, JAWS! Much of the film is set on the dirigible, the scenery is great and the Zeppelin scenes are pretty realistic. Give it a try--it's a forgotten and worthwhile film.
