Great to see this list! It makes your wonderful blog even easier to use. Thanks!
Sure thing, Dan! I'd been planning to do it for awhile, rather than just have the page open with the articles.
I'll soon have mug shots up for the crew list as well.
I've been on this site for an hour. Amazingly well done. Thank you for providing this information.
It's my pleasure. I'm glad you're enjoying the site.
There sure are some interesting stories among all these people, and fortunately not all of those stories end tragically.
I dont see any women passenger isee just a few womens
Why
Hi Alif,
There were seven female passengers aboard the final Hindenburg flight (Gertrud Adelt, Matilde Doehner, Irene Doehner, Elsa Ernst, Marie Kleemann, Margaret Mather and Emma Pannes) as well as Emilie Imhof, the stewardess.
Why weren't there more women aboard? Well, for one thing, a lot of the people who bought tickets to fly on the Hindenburg were businessmen who were taking advantage of the Hindenburg's speed across the ocean - two and a half to three days from Germany to New York, rather than five days on an ocean liner. And, of course, back in 1937 a much larger percentage of business travelers tended to be men.
Other than that, I really don't have an answer as to why there weren't more female passengers on that last Hindenburg flight.
Patrick
