Q. What is an airship?

A. An airship is an airborne vehicle obtaining most of its lift from lighter-than-air gas, usually helium, contained in the envelope.
Additional lift can be provided by vectored thrust from the engines but since most is derived from the helium, the engines are needed
mainly to drive the vehicle through the air and to provide power for the on-board systems. The result is considerable fuel economy when
compared with heavier-than-air machines. It also allows an airship to be more environmentally friendly.

There are three types of airship - rigid, semi-rigid and non-rigid:
