Seen those ideas. The army here has an idea for airships as observation platforms and so on.

I think I'd quit my job if I could captain one of those airships. Hell, actually no. I'd stay here, then if we get big enough, sell my shares and start my own fleet.

First thought that crossed my mind. What with satellite technology, AWACS, predator drones, and wars becoming small scale urban battles, exactly what is a airship going to do?

Oh yea, that's genius. Let's make an exact replica of a ship that was sunk by an iceberg and then deny any electronics onboard.

And how much does this hell cost?
