The Airship and Blimp Resources ("Airship Resources" for short)
provide information about airships to both novices and seasoned airship
enthusiasts. The main focus is on contemporary development, rather than
history. Explore this site and you will see why airships are destined
to a bright future.
In the five years since the inception of the Airship
Resources, I have spent hundreds of hours working on their
content. I was initially more interested in gathering
information on radio controlled blimps. But some of the contacts
and discoveries I made shifted my interest to building and flying
manned airships and balloons.
Experimental aviation is an absolutely fantastic
opportunity. I hope that the Airship Resources will help to
spread the construction and operation of amateur-built aerostats
around the world. This is also why the Experimental Balloon
and Airship Association (EBAA) has its home on this web site.
May your dreams be lighter than air and may
your lighter-than-air dreams come true!
