WHAT IS A BLIMP? It’s a gas balloon that you can steer. It’s an aircraft that’s lighter than air. It’s also known as dirigible, zeppelin and airship. It’s a non-rigid or semi-rigid airship.

HOW DO THEY FLY? They have gasoline or diesel engines and they attach to drive-shaft mechanisms attached to large propellers outside the airship. To turn, there are horizontal and vertical fins at the stern (back).

HOW MUCH DO THEY HOLD? They can hold up to fifty people.

HISTORY The first was built in 1852 in France by Henri Giffard. It was powered by steam. The first was built in 1852 in France by Henri Giffard. It was powered by steam. In 1900, Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin of Germany made his first flight in a rigid frame airship. It flew three and a half miles.

FAMOUS BLIMPS ► German zeppelin Hindenburg named after Count Ferdinand von Hindenburg. ► Graf Zeppelin and the Good-Year blimp are world famous. ► British dirigible, the R-34 are too.
