My question is very simple: If I want to buy, what is the price of a blimp?

Airbus wouldn't be in business today if they couldn't answer that immediately. I know.

This all seems very vague and unprofessional. Maybe you'd care to fill in the missing numbers:

A320 development cost USD 5 billion (my estimate) sold 5000 (exc 318/319/321). Development cost per unit USD 1 million.

Airship development cost USD 1 billion ? (my estimate) market 50 ? (my estimate). Development cost per unit USD 20 million.

Plus the jet is 10 times more productive. Wake up before you lose your money.

P.S. do you need someone with 35 years experience in air transport economics? PM me.
