Redundant[edit]

This article is redundant with the article for "airship". I propose to merge the two, since "airship" is the less obscure term leaving just the explanation about the origin of the term and a pointer to the "airship" article. [blimpguy] - Fri Jan 24 01:43:34 GMT 2003

I disagree, there should be similar articles for each term with the differences made apparent. BTW, for what most people think of

when hearing the term airship, dirigible would be the proper term and in that case airship should point to dirigible but I feel there is enough of a difference to warrant two similar but separate articles. I will work on the dirigible article myself over time.
