About the company

Airship is a category of lighter-than-air aircraft capable of powered, controlled navigation. These vehicles achieve lift through buoyancy provided by a lifting gas less dense than the surrounding atmosphere. Early dirigibles relied on hydrogen for its high lifting capacity and availability. The inherent flammability of hydrogen led to several fatal accidents that rendered hydrogen airships obsolete. Helium emerged as the safer alternative because it is non-flammable. Significant helium reserves were first discovered in the United States, limiting early helium airship operations largely to North America. Most airships built since the 1960s have used helium, though some employ hot air. The main structure of an airship is the envelope, which serves as the gasbag or contains gas-filled cells. Engines, crew accommodations, and payload are housed in a gondola suspended beneath the envelope. Airships are classified into three main types. Non-rigid airships, commonly called blimps, maintain their shape solely through internal gas pressure. Semi-rigid airships use internal pressure supplemented by a supporting structure such as a fixed keel. Rigid airships possess an outer structural framework that maintains the shape and carries all structural loads while containing lifting gas in internal cells. Rigid airships were pioneered by Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin and are often called zeppelins. Airships were the first aircraft to achieve controlled, powered flight. Their use declined after the 1940s as airplanes surpassed their capabilities. A series of high-profile accidents accelerated this decline. Since the 1960s, helium airships have served roles where extended hovering outweighs the need for speed. Common applications include advertising, tourism, camera platforms, geological surveys, and aerial observation.
