Airships Part 1: A Lofty Dream

CORRECTION: between 0:39 and 2:06, I should have been saying "zeppelin" in place of "airship." This is my mistake as I did not realize that airship is actually a broader term than zeppelin. Since airship is commonly used as a synonym for zeppelin, I did not think twice about it while researching. In other words, a ZEPPELIN has to be rigid, but an AIRSHIP does not have to be rigid. I believe the criteria I outlined to be correct if you simply replace the word "airship" with "zeppelin." I will use the word zeppelin in parts 2 and 3 of this series, but will likely keep the title of the series as is. So, to be clear, the topic of this video series is specifically zeppelins, not the more broad category of airships. Apologies for the oversight on my part. I hope you enjoy the video. ******************************************************************************************************** Today, we think little of flying across oceans in airliners in a matter of hours, but there was a time before viable commercial airliners when aircraft much more akin to ships carried passengers across oceans. These aircraft were airships, also known as zeppelins, and they were a futuristic alternative to ocean liners for the upper tier of the traveling public for a few decades.
