Hei,

I have been waiting for you article on how to build it to appear...

For me it fills the criteria of looking like a generic Zeppelin, but it
does not match any of the types drawn in Albatross publications.
There are bits and pieces of a Zeppelin in Norwegian museums, one similar
to the one kitted drifted ashore near Stavanger during WW1.

Besides, most of the modelling I have done lately has been with kits that
I could bring with me offshore and work on while onboard.
A Zep even in 1:144 would be difficult to bring with me in a bag, it would
be a tight fit the luggage hold of a Super Puma and we have limitations
both on size and weigth for what we bring with us.

Surely the Zeppelin would reduce your baggage weight ?  :)

Steve
