Vehicle 2:

Was bigger and lighter and was two fields away but wasn't a light
vehicle.


Airship mooring mast at Hanworth ?

That's Vehicle 2, yes, in an early aerial view of the Goods yard in 1932
Hindenburg is moored (as you say) at Hanworth Air Park two fields away.

Hindenburg was a light vehicle but it wasn't a light vehicle in the way
Vehicle 1 was. Vehicle 1 was an experiment in something which is now an
everyday (or perhaps that ought to be everynight) occurence.
