Abstract

See full text

A method of assembling a metal-clad rigid airship hull and apparatus for use in the assembly is disclosed. The apparatus is a rotating cradle consisting of an endless belt extending around and suspended between motor-driven cylinders. The cradle is rotated to provide angular positioning of hull surfaces of the airship at specific work locations. The bow and stern of the airship are assembled in a vertical position and, upon completion, are hoisted by a crane or sling to the horizontal position and attached to the main section of the airship hull structure utilizing the rotating cradle.
