Looking forward to the headlines:

Airship's first test flight was performed by 3 old guys; they couldn't keep it up.

Interesting. They're actually compressing the helium in flight http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroscraft

It's about time for Rigid airships to make a comeback of some sort. We have much better weather radar and materials for construction these days, and there are plenty of areas where the ability to transfer large cargoes without roads or runways would be a huge advantage, even if the flight time was slower.
