Airships

Two things go well together. Steampunk and airships. Though this article dose not mention steampunk I have always found these two subjects rather fascinating. So I came across a little blurb in Wired Magazine April 2006 featuring a real airship that was just in development. The airship named Dynalifter was designed by Robert L. Rist.  At the time Mr. Rist had poured about five hundred thousand dollars into the prototype. 

Some updates: 
In addition I came across another blog which explained that the prototype had been damaged but they where still trying to continue on with the project. Looks like this blog post was posted in 2009


Lets hope things will turn around.
