See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R33-class_airship. "The R33 class of British rigid airships were built for the Royal Naval Air Service during the First World War, but were not completed until after the end of hostilities, by which time the RNAS had become part of the Royal Air Force....The only other airship in the class, R34, became the first aircraft to make an east to west transatlantic flight in July 1919 and by the return flight, completed successfully the first two-way crossing." A photo of R-34 on the Wikipedia page is captioned, "R34 landing at Mineola on 6 July 1919." This would be another photo taken that day.
