Last Flight Of The Hindenburg, Lakehurst, New Jersey, USA - 17 May 1937

The German-designed and built passenger airship the Hindenburg (LZ-129) catches fire as it attempts to land in Lakehurst, New Jersey, following it's first cross-ocean flight of the year, May 6, 1937. The lighter-than-air craft had made more than 30 successful cross-ocean trips previously, but the disaster, in which 35 of the 90-odd passengers and crew members died, effectively ended this type of commercial air travel.
