A payload lift and positioning system mounted to an airship for precisely positioning a payload being lowered from the airship to the ground. The payload lift and positioning system includes a support beam structure mounted to an underside of the airship, the support beam structure including load hoists and guide cable hoists mounted thereto. A payload supporting structure to carry the payload, the payload supporting structure being connected to support beam structure by the load hoists and guide cable hoists. A guide cable system includes a plurality of guide cables, each extending from the guide cable hoists disposed on the support beam structure. A positioning system includes a guide member that is mounted on the payload supporting structure to control the position of the payload being lowered from the airship to ground.
