With all the doom and gloom being posted lately as a result of the credit crunch, high oil costs and the usual such as rosters, T's & C's and Management... here's something a little different.
Are we likely to see airships grace our skies again in the near future?
Yes they're slow compared to a jet a/c but...
- Are they less costly to operate?
- Will they keep the "green squad" at bay?
- With todays technology surely we can overcome safety concerns?
- Are they a viable alternative to longhaul leisure flights?
- Could they be a serious mass transport alternative?
- Could they save some jobs? (flight crew/cabin crew/maint' etc..)
OK bean counters...... let's see who's got the balls then!
