Anybody Watch "Archer"?



Today, I was made aware of the amazing word, “Superblimp”


That's fantastic!  Think of all the aerial coverage of notable sporting events we can have now!  


Indeed.  Officially called Hybrid Airship, the superblimp is set for its grand unveiling sometime soon, according to co-developers Hybrid Enterprises and Lockheed Martin.  This amazingly huge blimp is being targeted for use not circling sporting venues, unfortunately, but remote areas where materials can be flown in or out in great volumes with ease.  This is important, for example, in areas where infrastructure can not support heavy plane travel or there is minimal availability of roads and train tracks.  The Hybrid Airship is filling an important niche in worldwide air transport which can not be filled through any conventional means.  

And COME ON!  It's called Superblimp!
