So someone who doesn’t need to make money is building blimps to revolutionize air transport and you are proposing that company is going to then halt business during storms and travel to and float over hurricane recovery areas?
- internetblimp 2y agoyep exactly. he has stated (as the article does) that delivering humanitarian aid to disaster areas is one of the main goals
- svnt 2y agoI can see either a philanthropic/vanity project or (maybe? very optimistically?) a profitable business, but not both. Areas in need of humanitarian aid provided by airships is a too-small niche to (re-)develop entirely new flight technology. Geeks like blimps, and they need a story, that is all that is.
