Republique (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• Luc Brocard said:

  The Lebaudy République (later known as La République[1]) was a semi-rigid airship built for the French army in Moisson, France, by sugar manufacturers Lebaudy Frères. She was a sister ship of the Patrie, the main differences between the two being in the dimensions of the gasbag (or 'envelope') and the ballonet.[2][3] Although she was operationally successful, the République crashed in 1909 due to a mechanical failure, killing all four crew members.

  National Library of Ireland on The Commons Yes! Brrr!
  It is on the Ballytruckle Road, and I think the numbering has changed since 1908.
