The Spirit of Goodyear, one of the iconic Goodyear Blimps. This is a list of airships with a current unexpired Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) [1] registration.. In 2021, Reader's Digest said that "consensus is that there are about 25 blimps still in existence and only about half of them are still in use for advertising purposes". [2]
The Joint Land Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted Sensor System, or JLENS (colloquially, Spy Balloon), [1] was a tethered aerial detection system designed to track boats, ground vehicles, [2] cruise missiles, manned and unmanned aircraft (airborne early warning and control), and other threats [specify].
The blimp possess modern thrust vectoring propulsion systems that allows the AS700 to do both STOL and VTOL operations. [2] The maximum takeoff weight is 4,150 kg with the maximum range being 700 km. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Likewise, its maximum flight time is recorded to be 10 hours and is capable of achieving a maximum speed of a 100 km/h. [ 2 ]
The electric aircraft took 10 years to develop, is larger than three Boeing 737s and is estimated to carry more cargo than a Boeing 737, LTA Research CEO Alan Weston told TechCrunch, a science and ...
Thus solar-powered aircraft could be used in telecommunications, video/imagery, flight control by transporting airport surveillance radars, in precipitation detection by transporting weather radars, geopositioning Global Positioning Systems (GPS), [3] and other pseudo satellite [4] applications that transpond the data with ground stations.
