Try these

I’m bored … let’s have a quiz:
  1. LZ127 flew from 1928-1938. What happened?
  2. What was the name of the aircraft carrier (1938/39) never launched?
  3. Which German count liked airships?
  4. What was DELAG in 1910?
  5. The art deco Empire State spire was originally for which purpose?
  6. Who wrote most of the music and who the lyrics for Led Zeppelin?
  7. Between Yardbirds and LZ, which 3 did Page want in his supergroup?

    1. JH: Correct … LZ127 did not crash, … two separate band members.

    3. JH: Correct … Plant lyrics, Page music; Beck, Moon, Entwhistle; to moor … it could indeed.

  2. 6 - I think quite a bit of the music was 'borrowed' from earlier sources.

  3. Graf Zepp made many successful flights and then mysteriously caught on fire when rocking at Noo Yawk. The Russians or Trump did it.
    Like the band predicted to fly like Lead Bslloon, Zepellin.
    I recollect a weird film or tv programme with Dracula.
    Delag flogged tickets for passengers on Graf Zep.
    Before the giant monkey destroyed it, it was radio antenna mast.
    Plant, Bob.
    Dunno. But we're they the first Page 3

  5. JH: I do believe we now have them all. They just retired LZ 127 after the Hindenburg, they just retired LZ after Bonham crashed.
