Can they become applicable for the air equivalent of trailer car? Can they help people flight in slow but somewhat more comfy travels? Or is it a pipedream?
>>2065173I was on this shit in middle school
>>2065173Nah, don't think that they will ever enter into any use except tourist excursions. They're just too slow. I'd like to ride one though. I always end up missing my local hot air ballon festival
>>2065191Maybe for some people it can be a luxurious alternative for living, like an rv or sail ship.
>>2065173Did you see the tethered train ones thread here little while ago?
>>2065207No.
I've been waiting on the dynalifter for twenty years. It's not happening. I'm sad.
>>2065450They should make it in a military budget version. That might make it applicable for future civilian use as a civvie version or a second hand military equipment,like warbirds or even hueys..
>>2065173They need to use them for telecom. Why the fuck do we need to go to space?
>>2065173the french are making a fret airship, mostly for canada, to transport mostly lumbering in remote area, so there's a future for airship fretit's also interesting because you barely need any infrastructure for transport itself so you don't have to buy a ton of separate properties to lay rail like trainalso there's multiple prototypes of anchored airships with turbines that can be an alternative to wind turbines that need a gorillion tons of aluminium (pollute to make and recycle) and the other gorillion of tons on concrete necessary so your aluminium pillar stay in place (which destroy soils)so unironically airships are the future but it's too inefficient sizewise to be used as a trailer car
