History:
========================================================
HM Airship R100 was a privately designed and built rigid airship made as part of a two-ship competition to develop
new techniques for a projected larger airship for British military use his constructed was completed on November
1929.R-100 made her maiden flight in the morning of 16 December 1929. After departing Howden she flew slowly to York then
set course for the Government airship establishment at Cardington, Bedfordshire, cruising at around 50 mph
(80 km/h) on four engines, and reached Cardington in two
hours flight time. At the huge hangars at Cardington
(some of which survive), two teams, the other led by the Air Ministry, competed to establish which was the better design in part via long demonstration flights.
The following day speed trials were performed.
The officials at Cardington refused to believe that
R100 could be at least 10 mph (16 km/h)faster than
the R101. In fact, during a test on 16 January 1930
the R100 achieved a speed of 81 mph (130 km/h),
making her the fastest airship in the world.
