Re(6): Could Airships Really Revolutionize the U.S. Navy?

The Airship concept re-emerges about every 10-20 years.
Westinghouse hired Ned Hogan about 20-30 years ago to try and sell the Navy Airships using just about the same hype --helium, lift capability, capacity, endurance and multi-missions-- just as this most recent venture. Ned gave it a good shot for 3-4 years but eventually nothing came of it.
