Chapter 166: Chapter 161: Airship Test

March 10th, 1903, New South Wales Industrial Zone.

After more than five months, Theodore Korbel and Ludwig Durrell finally succeeded in replicating the rigid airship Lz-1, manufactured by Count Zeppelin, and also making improvements to some of its more obvious shortcomings.

As Theodore Korbel and Ludwig Durrell were both indispensable assistants to Count Zeppelin in the creation of airships, the replicated airship almost perfectly inherited all the advantages of the Zeppelin Lz-1.

Moreover, due to Australia's wealth, the two also made improvements to some issues Count Zeppelin was aware of but could not address due to lack of funds, thus giving birth to the AU-1 replica airship.

Immediately after the airship's birth, Arthur came to the Aerospace Laboratory in the suburbs of Sydney, not only to observe the pioneer of rigid airships first hand but also to release information to the outside world that the purpose of Australia's aerospace laboratory was to develop airships.
