It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a… peach emoji? The Airlander 10 is the world’s biggest currently operational aircraft, and though it won’t be setting any speed records, it may hold the key to greener, more sustainable commercial and research flight.

Ah, yes, the Goodrear blimp.
I love the sky ass.
the hindenbutt
"oh i know, lets just make a really bigass plane" scientists with majority aphantasia take it entirely literally and mathematically
Companies with the idea went all bancrupt (Cargolifter for example). Let's hope this turns out different.
Also stop putting the advertisment in die middle of the video. That's unprofessional.
OMFG, that aircraft has given me a massive boner!😬
All that ass hanging out- who knows what song this is from😂😂
We always knew Kim Kardashian's ass was a blimp.
Men of culture… uhhhhh
We need this on Venus
Ummm…Ok…am I the only person that thought that the image for the video looked like a really big butt? 😂
level 3 gyatt sighting?!
John Q. Airlander: But how will we get people to click on YouTube videos about it?
His eight-year-old: 🤔
Outstanding!
🐡 "I'm gonna touch the butt…."
heavy turbulence would mean it's twerking in the sky 😩
Just a fart to get to the moon 🌙
Dat thumbnail tho
I am a huge science nerd, but I have no issues calling out a thicc booty when I see one 😀
Thanks for bringing that great idea to a wider audience!
If been with team airship since the unfortunately cancelled Cargolifter project. Vehicles like this would make heavy goods transports so much easier and provide great platforms for a lot of tasks.
In 1883 my greatgrand father started a company flying coldair balloons..but it never really took off 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Isn't there a dwindling supply of helium left in the planet?
It looks like it has some kind of jet propulsion based system from the thumbnail…
The thumbnail made me pause and raise my eyebrow. 🧐
similar one in Batman Animated series… all that left is we need a batman
A good Playcopterblimp never skips leg day
I should call her
Id like to hear the specifics of what we dont understand about lift. Can you make a video about it?
The thumbnail is looks like really 😂
This aircraft obeys Bielenberg’s Rule: if a piece of technology is only doing one thing for you, it’s not working hard enough. Buoyancy + lift + thrust = 10 tons at 55 mph.
550 miles in 10 hours is good enough if it cuts emissions by a factor of 13. Cargo won’t care.
He gave a useless unit for the speed of this thing. It's 130 kph or 80 mph.
This oversized Zeppelin can't move faster than a car.
The thumbnail is diabolical.
I would.
Really looking forward to trying the buttplane soon 🙂
