Notlandung bei Fischreute - Fischreute/Sommersried, BW, Germany - Plane Crash Sites on Waymarking.com

Ger.:
Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin war am 17. Januar 1906 mit seinem zweiten Starrluftschiff (nach ihm später „Zeppelin“ benannt) LZ 2 zur Testfahrt von Friedrichshafen gestartet.
LZ 2 war etwa genauso groß wie LZ 1," (Anm.: 128m Länge, 11,65m Durchmesser, 11.300 m3 Wasserstoff als Traggas)" jedoch deutlich verbessert und stieg am 17. Januar 1906 zum ersten und einzigen Mal auf. Das Schiff wurde von einem starken Wind über Land abgetrieben, später versagten die Motoren und die Steuerung. Daher musste der Zeppelin bei Fischreute/Sommersried Kißlegg notlanden, wo das provisorisch verankerte Schiff in der Nacht durch einen aufkommenden Sturm irreparabel beschädigt wurde."

Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin had started his test flight from Friedrichshafen on January 17, 1906 with his second fixed airship (later named "Zeppelin" after him) LZ 2.
LZ 2 was about the same size as LZ 1, "(note: 128m length, 11.65m diameter, 11,300 m3 hydrogen as a carrier gas)" but was significantly improved and rose for the first and only time on January 17, 1906. The ship was driven offshore by a strong wind, later the engines and controls failed. The Zeppelin therefore had to make an emergency landing at Fischreute / Sommersried in Kißlegg, where the provisionally anchored ship was irreparably damaged by an upcoming storm at night. "
