Meet the Clipper, an airship the height of the Eiffel Tower. Its unusual vertical form is bottom-weighted for stability, while its flight ceiling is just 12,000ft, and it can float as low as a few hundred feet above ground.
-
To demonstrate the new technology, a fully working model at one-sixth linear scale has been built at ATG’s manufacturing facility at Cardington, UK On 23rd July 2000, this craft made its first flight. A new aircraft type was born.

Although capable of speeds up to 65 mph, the ship normally cruises at about 35 mph, at an altitude of around 2,000 feet, carrying the Sponsor’s name

This is not a Blimp. It’s a sort of flying Queen Mary 2 that could change the way you think about air travel. It’s the Aeroscraft, and when it’s completed, it will ferry passengers across continents and oceans as they stroll about the one-acre cabin

he HiSentinel carried a 60 lb payload
and telemetry pod to 74,000 ft and
achieved powered flight for 1.5 hours
during a five hour flight. -
A SkySite balloon costs less than $100 and carries a payload worth $400 to $500. The payloads carry light beacons and phone numbers,
and have been recently outfitted with GPS technology for tracking. -
A HAP is acronymic for a “High Altitude Platform”, which can take a number of forms, ranging
from a tethered balloon to a high altitude (18-25km) solar powered pilotless plane or a powered
airship which keeps station in the winds at that altitude. -
Airships in the stratosphere beaming back broadband capable of speeds up to 120Mbps may seem like fantasy.
But tests in Sweden have suggested it could become a reality within three to five years.
