Schütte-Lanz (SL) airships were a series of rigid airships designed and built by the Luftschiffbau Schütte-Lanz company from 1909 until 1917. [1] One research and four passenger airships were planned for post-war use, but were never built. The Schütte-Lanz company was an early competitor of the more famous airships built by Ferdinand von ...

A non-rigid airship, commonly called a blimp , is an airship (dirigible) [1] without an internal structural framework or a keel. Unlike semi-rigid and rigid airships (e.g. Zeppelins ), blimps rely on the pressure of their lifting gas (usually helium , rather than flammable hydrogen ) and the strength of the envelope to maintain their shape.
