How often do we read these articles about these high tech zeppelins that will revolutionise air transport only to read some months later that the organisation has gone out of business? The simple fact is they cannot function in anything more than a moderate wind and no amount of wishful thinking will give them this capability.It astonishes me that the people that engineer these things seem to be blind to this.
