Question: What was the largest passenger airship ever flown?
Answer: The Hindenburg zeppelin was the largest ever flown, stretching more than 800 feet from nose to tail. That’s nearly three times the length of the massive Ukrainian-built Antonov An-225 airplane—though the Antonov outweighed it by a wide margin. Today, of course, the Hindenburg is best known for burning up almost instantaneously in 1937 during a landing in New Jersey, bringing an end to zeppelin travel.
