K-Ship Profile, lacking in detail

A good book to check out is US Navy Airships by James R. Shock, available here: http://www.airshiphistory.com/index.htm ... 10003.html
I have the softcover edition. They have a new hardcover version which apparently includes additional drawings. Haven't seen it so I don't know if it would help but its still a good reference and the softcover has plenty of pictures and unit histories. Also check the Airship Modeler Forum at http://www.airshipmodeler.com
There is a good thread on building a K-Ship http://www.airshipmodeler.com/forums/sh ... ght=K-ship It has some good side views that should be of use.
Good photo page

Wish I could find more but Navy LTA, especially the non-rigids, has always gotten shortchanged by history. Shock's book is probably your best bet.

Do you happen to have scans of the K, M, or N class drawings? The above is exactly what I need. The previous drawing was eyeballed from a photo which is Certifiably Not Good For Shipbucket.

I just ordered the soft cover; don't really feel like dropping an extra $25 for a hardcover and a few foldouts, but whatever. We'll see. I don't mind buying books anyways.

OK DP, that's great, but do us all a favor and let someone else draw something for once...

Great stuff TurretHead, thanks.

Sorry Mate! I did it long time ago, I did not planned to finish it. So you can do what ever you want with it.

This is what Ryan's been up to lately? Hmm, maybe it'll be safe to talk to him again then.
