Just saw it on hushkit.net Yes that’s a great picture. There’s quite a few of that incident including some taken from planes that followed it, plus some Pathe footage. If you could be a good chap though & avoid mentioning the final score back down on the ground 😟 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, once you've seen one Zeppelin. I'm now living a short walk from where R34 was built in Inchinnan. The first aircraft (a Zeppelin copy) to do an Atlantic return trip. Would have done 1st trip full-stop, but they bent it getting it out the hangar in the wind and a new fangled airplane beat it.... With a tail wind. Oanyhoo, reading about aeroplanes since football is off 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim Jim Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Anyone remember the stat for biggest crowds at simultaneous games at Cathkin & Hampden. Must have been about 150,000, but can't remember where I read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was built over by the railway in the 1880s and QPFC then moved to the 2nd Hampden, now known as Cathkin Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
