infrastructure is limited, the future of Cargo Airships looks promising. There are currently a handful of companies that have prototypes under research and development where they envision a vast potential market in air cargo industry. A one of the prototype of these cargo airships is shown in the following figure: Figure 7- A prototype of Cargo Airship In the future, cargo airships can offer following benefits: • Airships can work without ground infrastructure, thus eliminating
