Soon if you look up in the South Bay, you may see the Pathfinder 1, an enormous 400-foot-long electric airship that "looks like a Goodyear blimp on steroids." STORY: abc7ne.ws/47Bc2pY #airship #technology #prototype #electric #abc7news
That's not a blimp. That's a zeppelin. You can tell immediately because you can see the structure giving it that panelled look. Nothing else looks like a zep.
well, more specifically a rigid airship, since "zeppelin" more refers to airships made by the zeppelin company (like zeppelin nt, a semi-rigid airship which the gondola of pathfinder 1 is from)
In einem echten Luftschiff reisen die Menschen im Luftschiff selbst und nicht in einer Gondel. Von daher ist es, auch wenn es sehr groß ist, noch immer ein Blimp.
Not a traditional Zeppelin of any kind! It's a modified stretched Zeppelin NT Semi Rigid but with a full rigid frame..still not a traditional Zeppelin. I want to see an 815' long, 154' wide, and 154' tall Zeppelin painted silver, with 18-20 huge gas bags inside the frames, and 4-5 huge DB-602 Diesels or Maybach VL.II Gas Engines. Then I'll be impressed!
So why after 10-months as of this video's posting, hasn't Pathfinder 1 made it's first actual flight? Nothing about the delay on Google. Does anyone know why???

@@brianb-p6586 Muchacho te equivocas los dirigibles de verdad tamaño grande zeppelin tienen una estructura rigida para mantener su forma sin la necesidad de inflarlo como un globo de fiesta 🤦♂️😓
Zeppelins with internal structure are lighter-than-air craft (or "airships"), but they are dirigibles, not blimps,@@Eliospe . A blimp is an airship which does not have a rigid structure, holding its shape by inflation instead.
