gigantic awesome blimp

[larnman2]

Can someone tell if any thing new happened with the Mobyair people, several months ago, i hear that a big blimp company was popping up for comercial use and to transport people slowly, but cheaper than airplanes. Also, since they don't go higher than 8000 ft, There are no pressurized cabins. I got so excited about airships that I nearly passed out. Then, they fell off the radar.

A google search turns up nothing useful except concept art. But here are blimp-related pictures anyway!

After the Hindenburg, people got too scared to fly on airships, despite the fact that due to using Helium airships no longer became flammable.

Also, people just like speed. A blimp will take too long to go to distances that can be covered by planes, and will be too impractical to transport over distances a car could handle.
