nextstep:


Its weight is supported by the large amount of helium it carries (like those birthday balloons). The engines mostly serve to push it. Not entirely sure how they make it rise and fall (perhaps they release helium from compressed tanks into the balloon so it floats, then recompress the helium back into the tanks so it falls).


This is likely for hauling cargo to places ships or rail can't reach, or supplementing cargo planes over shorter distances e.g. it would be great for correspondence/contracts/letters and small packages between Lagos and Abuja, but not Lagos to Nairobi.

Unlike a jet engine that consumes fuel, the majority of helium remains in the balloon after the flight, so there should be a negligible refill cost. There's the cost of powering the engines that make the aircraft pushing the aircraft, but those could be powered by batteries... I'm really curious to read more about this.
Helium ke... so if the gas escaped, this big monster will just crash abi... I will stick to fuel powered planes for now. Can you imagine Helium notori oloun grin. Let me swim in my ignorance abeg, at least I will be safe.

Just 6-hour test flight and still needs 200-hour test flight to certify it okay for customers,that a good quality control mechanism.

How can a sane person completely switch from a technological discourse to political and religious matters? How much of hatred and bigotry do you have for Muslims? You are absolutely nothing, so Muslims don't even need a discouse with a swine like you but change your mentality. Bigotry and hate kills.

I just quoted him but never knew he is a tribalist and religious and political bigot. How would disagreement on technological matters completely switch to religious and political issues. I'm pretty stunned at the level of hatred some people have for Muslims. I rarely see comments like that from non Christians towards Christians yet the latter always claim to be tolerant. Lol

He never insulted you! It is harrowing that you could throw insult over a statement like his that was devoid of insult. Man! you have no eyes for jokes? undecided

IGNORANCE WONT KILL YOU HATERS OF MUSLIMS ... just like your pope did in 1095 by pope urban and the master planner of the crusader....Complex always worried you guys just don’t know why may be cuz of the purity worship in Islam but change your ways if truly you believe in the people of the books and one God
Purity worship by killing people who don't want to join your faith. Someone who detest paedophile should not be a Muslim. Religion of Peace my foot.

91MPH is respectable for an airship.

That's like 150km/h, plus, it has a top speed of 148MPH, well above 200km/h!
