LONDON, Aug. 24 (UPI) -- The blimp-like Airlander 10, the world's largest aircraft, crashed, slowly and gently, on its second flight Wednesday.
The 300-foot-long plane nosedived into a field in Bedfordshire as it returned to the Royal Air Force base at Cardington, near London, and sustained front-end damage. There were no injuries to the two pilots aboard, or to the ground crew.
